At work, I'm primarily a Solaris shop, which slow inroads being made
towards getting *some* staff to play with/use FreeBSD.  After using
FreeBSD for half a decade now, I *still* have a problem with using printer
stuff under FreeBSD, and am wondering if anyone is/has worked on improving
this, or if there is a printer replacement package that can be installed?

All our printers are "remote printers", and under Solaris, to set this up,
its a simple:

lpadmin -p <localname> -s <remote sys>!<remote printer>

And you are done...
