I made my sparc system V printing system working with hylafax.

I added a new printer called "fax". (with lpadmin)
I have no clue how to setup the bsd-lpr printing system.
The interface file for the printer
looks like this: (the "printer is expecting PostScript file as input)

the script parses the postscript file for a string "FAX:" to find out
the dest-number
but take a look in the script, and you will see
