now I feel like a right twatt. Dave was right and the printer should have
been called lp not lj despite what NT was claiming. In the end, the lpd
daemon was the way to go. Why the earlier changes didn't work was because
I forgot to restart lpd and lprng after each change to printcap. Dumbass
am I.
It's working now without funny run through other peoples machines (which
did work at least)
Thanks people for the help
