All right, I don't know where to post this question, since I have seen
the mention of Sun's SPARCPrinter here, I'll just give it a shot in this
news group.

To any NeSprint/PreLimn guru.... I'm trying to print images of size
0.5MB to 4MB in Sun rasterfile format.

   1) Which method will work faster and take up less resources?
	 % lpr filename.ras or
	 % pl filename.ras :rash ?

   2) Does "pl" has the -s (no spooling) option like "lpr"?

   3) The configuration for the SPARCPrinter is 300dpi. By making
      the printer default to 400dpi will I slow down the printing
      of other images that is less than 400dpi?

The problem is I don't want PreLimn to do spooling but then it doesn't 
seemed to have the "-s" option. But if I use "lpr" then I lost the
flexibility of specifying resolution of the printer.... Suggestion?
