Remote printing to JetDirect: unwanted banners



Dear folks,

We have two HP printers with JetDirect boxes.  When I print to them
using TCP/IP, an extra page appears after the print job that contains
the following four lines of text in 12pt Courier font:
User: nicku
Host: nickpc.tyee.vtc.edu.hk
Class: nickpc.tyee.vtc.edu.hk
Job: stdin

The sh entry is present in the printcap entries; here is one of them:
##PRINTTOOL3## REMOTE
ljpq1:\
 :sd=/var/spool/lpd/ljpq1:\
 :mx#0:\
 :lp=/dev/null:\
 :sh:\
 :rm=202.40.215.169:\
 :rp=raw:

Any idea on how to stop this terrible waste of trees?
