4.0-CURRENT. Also effects prior versions
>Description:
the lp shell script should take the -s (silence) option. lpr is
basicaly silent anyway and Applixware insists on calling lp with the -s
option. Accepting and throwing it way makes printing work out of the
box and doesn't appear to behave incorrectly.
>How-To-Repeat:
lp -s <file>
