I am quite mystified by a problem with my /etc/printcap. I'm using a
laserjet4mp at the moment. It is a PostScript printer. Whenever I
print anything it prints a burst page with user,host,class, and job. I
thought that the line in /etc/printcap containing ":sh:\" was supposed
to "suppress header". It has in every other system I've dealt with.

I don't know if this problem is specific to my Quadra 660av runnng NetBSD 1.5, the Mac NetBSD port, or a general NetBSD problem, as I have no BSD systems for comparison. 

I am hoping it is a typo in the /etc/printcap file.
