Both of the printing methods you use are sending a closed file to some destination, you should be able to intercept the file, and using 'sed' change the value of the pound sign on the SCO side to whatever the printer likes before finally using ftcopy or lp.

Schedules requests taken by for printing on printers. is typically invoked in This creates a process which runs in the background until is executed. The activity of the process is recorded in recognizes the following options: Write a verbose record of the process on Write logging data on Shuts down the printer scheduler. All printers that are printing at the time is invoked stop printing. Requests that were printing at the time the scheduler was shut down are reprinted in their entirety after is started again. All LP commands perform their functions even when is not running. Moves requests that were queued by between LP destinations. The first form of the command moves the named requests to the LP destination, dest. requests are request IDs as returned by The requests that are currently printing will not be moved. The second form of the command moves all requests for destination dest1, including requests that are currently printing, to destination dest2. As a side effect, dest1 rejects all subsequent requests. Note that never checks the acceptance status (see accept(1M)) for the new destination when moving requests. Defines the minimum required priority for the spooled file to be printed. fence must be in between 0 (lowest fence) and 7 (highest fence). Each printer has its own fence, which is initialized to 0 when it is configured by the command. EXTERNAL INFLUENCES

Move requests and from destination queues and to the destination queue if the requests are not currently printing. Move all requests from the destination queue laserjet1 to the destination queue laserjet2. This will also cause laserjet1 to reject all subsequent print requests to it. All currently printing requests from laserjet1 will be reprinted on laserjet2.
