I agree that this trick (changing /dev/lpt* to /dev/lpa* in /etc/printcap)
should be documented to the FAQ. I appreciate that most of us are coming
from some other OS and shouldn't need much hand-holding, but using NetBSD
shouldn't be only for unix gurus either. A printing HowTo like those
already on site might be worthwhile.
