Your printcap should look something like this:
lp:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
:mx#0:\
:sh:\
:rm=printer.mydomain.org:\
:rp=portname:\
:if=/var/spool/lpd/lp/filter:
See the printcap(5) man page for information on `rp' and `rm', and your
printer manual for any predefined settings that will be necessary to
input.
The printtool does in fact have the ability to configure a remote printer.
