I have one working on our network.  I've seen the suggestion
that the queue name be "raw," but when I set ours up, before
I saw that, I used "lp" and it worked.  What I'd still like to learn,
though, is how to control the duplexer and how to tell the printer
to switch out of economode to regular density.

Anyone had any experience with either of these features?
