My tests imply that it is > just lp. I do not use systems with printcap myself, but termcap (and terminfo, BTW) description states, that terminal aliases are separated by | with the last one being the "long, user friendly, name". I believe, printcap behaves the same way. So, the last entry should probably be ignored. Better yet, it is the one that should be presented in verbose mode :-) /andrej
