How do you set up printing of TeX files on a HP Laserjet using BSD 4.3 lpr?
We have a commercial TeX package from Arbortext and a HP driver.  However,
the only output I get is a couple of lines of jibberish.  I know that the
.hp file is okay because I've printed it other ways.  Thus, I believe that
something is wrong with my /etc/printcap entry for the printer.  It could
also be that lpr is having problems with the long lines.  The lines of the
.hp file are indeed very long.  How have you set up lpr to print TeX files
on a Laserjet?  I'm sure this must be possible.  Please enlighten me.
