Context: VAX and RT 7.0F (and probably all other versions)
What happens:
tisiphone% lpq -P foo
lpq: foo: unknown printer
tisiphone% tail -1 /usr/adm/messages
Jul 9 10:33:54 tisiphone lpd: unknown printer
tisiphone% lpr -Pfoo
lpr: foo: foo: unknown printer
tisiphone% tail -1 /usr/adm/messages
Jul 9 10:34:56 tisiphone lpd: foo: unknown printer
What should change:
1. lpq should log the error as lpq, not lpd.
2. lpq should log the name of the unknown printer.
3. lpr should log the error as lpr, not lpd.
4. lpr should only give stderr the printername once (not "foo: foo:")
