Reading the 'Printing-Usage' howto and man printcap give 2 solutions.
As you don't seem to have those docs (?)
Printing-Usage says to invoke the printer with the -h to suppress hte
'burst page' ie lpr -h thesis.txt
man printcap says thæt :sh: will suppress the burst header page.
Man, am I glad I run Linux. Sooo much information available to solve
so many problems. Of course you have to RTFM.
