##PRINTTOOL3## REMOTE POSTSCRIPT 1200x1200 letter {} PostScript Default {}
lp:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
        :mx#0:\
        :sh:\
        :rm=printername:\
        :rp=PORT1:\
        :if=/var/spool/lpd/lp/filter:                  


The `rm' represents the remote printer name, and `rp' is the port that accepts
data on the remote printer.  This will vary, but if you can telnet to the
printer you can find out that way.
