Well, somehow I got magic printing on my remote, directly
attached printer working. I am not sure what I did to
correct things, or what was wrong before. Maybe someone
could critique my printcap. But in the course of this,
I noticed a bunch of errors messages which seem to indicate
bug to me. A number of times a temp file
/var/spool/lpd/<queue name>/temp<random string>
is tried to be renamed to /var/log/lp-errs. The reason
for failure is permission denied. The file in fact already
exists. To me, it makes sense to try and append messages
to this file, but not to rename the file to this final
lp-errs file. Anyway, printcap follows .sig.
