I think if you add the following code:
Code:
    :filter=/mydir/filter/myfilter

at line 9 of the printcap file.


Then create a /mydir/filter/myfilter script in sh/ksh
Code:
save="N"
while read line
do
     if [ "$save" = "N" ]
     then
         m=`echo $line|cut -c1-6`
         if [ "a$m" = "aManual" ]
        then
            save="Y"
       fi
   fi
if [ "$save" = "Y" ]
then
    echo "$line"
fi
done
