Do the following:
Code:
cd /usr/spool/lp/model
cp dumb netcat

modify netcat with vi or whatever so that it looks like:
Code:
:                                                      
#Set up some global variables.                         
: ${SPOOLDIR:=/usr/spool/lp}                           
: ${LOCALPATH:=${SPOOLDIR}/bin}                        
                                                       
copies=$4                                              
shift; shift; shift; shift; shift                      
files="$*"                                             
i=1                                                    
while [ $i -le $copies ]                               
do                                                     
        for file in $files                             
        do                                             
        /path_to_netcat/netcat -p 9100 hp451x <{$file} 
        done                                           
        i=`expr $i + 1`                                
done                                                   
                                                       
exit 0

Run scoadmin to add a local printer, selecting netcat as the model, and /dev/null as the device.
Note that the hp451x in the script should match an entry in /etc/hosts, and that the printer port number might not be 9100.

DESCRIPTION

       Each of these functions performs an in-place multiplication of two vectors and shifts the result.

       For real data, the following equation is used:

       xz[i] = xz[i] * y[i] * 2**(-shift)

       where i = 0, 1, ..., (n - 1).

       For complex data, the following equation is used:

       tmp	   = xz[2*i]
       xz[2*i]	   = (tmp*y[2*i] - xz[2*i + 1]*y[2*i + 1]) * 2**(-shift)
       xz[2*i + 1] = (tmp*y[2*i + 1] + xz[2*i + 1]*y[2*i]) * 2**(-shift)

       where i = 0, 1, ..., (n - 1).

PARAMETERS

       Each of the functions takes the following arguments:

       xz	       Pointer to the first element of the first source and result vector.

       y	       Pointer to the first element of the second source vector.

       n	       Number of elements in each vector.

       shift	       Right shifting factor.  The ranges of valid shift are:

		       1 <= shift <= 8	 for U8, S8, U8C, S8C types
		       1 <= shift <= 16  for S16, S16C types
		       1 <= shift <= 31  for S32, S32C types

RETURN VALUES

       Each of the functions returns MLIB_SUCCESS if successful. Otherwise it returns MLIB_FAILURE.
