I cut and paste from the HOWTO:
4.19.2. Converting SystemV Options to LPRng Options
On some SystemV lp print spoolers, the lp -o option, puts the option
information into the control file S line, and on other systems on the puts
the option information into the control file O line. To convert these
options to LPRng Z options use the :prefix_option_to_option=from,from...
to facility to prefix the from control file lines to the to control file
line. For example:
# System V to LPRng - S and O to Z options
convert:server:tc=.common
:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:prefix_option_to_option=S,O Z
# LPRng to System V O options
convert:server:tc=.common
:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:prefix_option_to_option=Z O
