Does CAP 6.0 work under SUN OS 4.1.1?

I recently ported CAP 6.0 (Columbia AppleTalk Protocol software) for printing
to Appletalk-connected printers to SUNOS 4.1.1.  Running the following
command results in printer output:

	papif -P ps2s < /tmp/motd.ps

However, "lpr -P ps2s /tmp/motd.ps" does not work.  I believe I have followed
the directions for setting up /etc/printcap, but have so far not gotten
print spooling to work.

Has anyone out there set up CAP 6.0 on a SPARCstation running SUNOS 4.1.1?  If
so, could I see a copy of your /etc/printcap, /etc/cap.printers, and any
shellscripts you are using.

BTW, this software works fine under IBM's AIX 3.1.5 operating system.

Thanks in advance.
