I actually have not thought about that specific protocol, no. I did the 
direct printing for PCL printers, but that was more an experiment.
I suspect doing the lpr protocol would be dead simple starting with my 
pcl code.
Any takers? The pcl implementation is even written in C, so grabbing 
that and doing an lpr implementation shouldn't be hard for anyone.

I'm currently starting to write the Multinet compatible line drivers for 
DECnet for RSX, so I don't have the cycles right now.
