i need to emulate print server on device running FreeBSD (which do other 
things in the same time) - as standard port 9100 not lpd.

Can it be done.

yes i know i can just add to inetd.conf cat >/dev/ulpt0 BUT

- it will accept a connection even if printer is not connected
- it doesn't work bidirectionally (usually not needed but anyway)

Anyone knows a program from ports (or not) to do this?
