If you want this permanent and site wide, you can define the following
in your site.h file.

#define print_FORMATCOMMAND "eqn -T$PRINTERTYPE /tmp/%s.n  | groff | " 
#define print_PRINTCOMMAND "qpr"  

If qpr takes a flag to indicate the file name for a header page, you
could set it as

#define print_PRINTCOMMAND "qpr -(qprflag) %s"  

Alternately, these value may be set in either the AndrewSetup file or in
the global or personal perference files by setting values for
*.printcommand and *.formatcommand. e.x.

*.printcommand: qpr
*.formatcommand: eqn -T$PRINTERTYPE /tmp/%s.n  | groff |
