bah, pesky typing fingers working faster than brain :-(
Here's what works for me (with a 4550DN) is summat like...
admincolour|Admin colour laser single sided:\
:sh:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/admincolour:\
:rm=pr2.blah.blah.blah:\
:rp=raw:
the raw queue was on by default when I turned it on... should be
somewhere in the telnet config menu if it's a reasonably fancy
printer... or somewhere buried in the menus if ye like pressing
buttons.
