It's not clear how that printer is connected. If it's on the network itself, you should be able to send jobs directly to it. If the printer is connected by USB or something else to the server, CUPS might still accept jobs from lpr. (Untested, but it's a print server, after all.) Network printing from printcap (among other things) is shown here: http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/docs/html/lpdprinting.html Well, and in the Handbook, too.
