Cool.  That mostly worked for me.  I had to create the following input
filter for lpd.

#! /bin/sh

TMP=/usr/tmp/$$.gs
trap "rm -f $TMP" 0
cat > $TMP
echo exit >> $TMP

gs -q -sDEVICE=ljet4 -sOutputFile=- -r600x600 $TMP

The -q option keeps it from dumping the GS> prompt to the output a bunch
of times but I still get some garbage at the end including a GS>.  Any
idea how to clean that up?
