	For printing, you might also want to consult the Linux Printing-HOWTO.
It has useful information on how to do all sorts of printing with a Berkeley
lpd.  The Linux documentation in general is often helpful, if you know what
applies and what doesn't for each OS you use.

	Oh - more man pages to look at - lpd(8), and lpr(1).
