	It seems that the 'lpr -p' option doesn't work correctly.  While
it should use 'pr' to format the files, the printer doesn't print the
file at all.  It goes all the way up the queue, then disappears from the
queue in a flash and doesn't get printed.  I believe 'print', the shell
script designed to call on 'lpr -p', behaves the same way.
