Hi Bat,

I installed patch level 9 on my system.  I can no longer print to my
postscript printer.  I can cat a file through it, each time I try lpr
file I see the printer light up, but no files.  I did see where 
/usr/bin/lpr was replaced.  

If you get a few min, could you give me a call.  I noticed in the readme
there were changes to lpr.  Leave it to me to find the changes.

There are no errors in lpr.log.          

There is no errors in /usr/spool/lp/lpd0  either.

    I called Tammy and she swapped out both lpr and the lpbanner_prologue
    files and found it was the latter.
    
    She's printing to a local LN03R printer (-V usually, but either way
    doesn't work).
