Has anybody printed with `Print' or `a2ps' on a network printer?

Fink's a2ps works fine for `a2ps -Pvoid <filename>'.

Can't find why /usr/libexec/lpd does not even read /etc/printcap.

As to `Print', the man page seems to suggest that the command depends on 
  `lpr' and hence on `lpd', too.

`ping lex' is alright (lex is the name of my network printer), but for 
both `a2ps' and `Print' lex seems to be an unknown printer.

By the way, I've no problem to print to lex from my FreeBSD-4.5 box.


Thank you in advance for any help.
