At Sat, 17 Jul 2004 it looks like Peter Risdon composed:

If I'm not mistaken, cups does install "lpr" and "lprm" and "lpq" ..... but
I believe they have the following names
lpr.cups
lprm.cups
lpq.cups
In the past I've renamed the original files that were there already:
mv lpr lpr-ORIG
mv lprm lprm-ORIG
mv lpq lpq-ORIG
Then I create the symlinks so any programs "looking" for the original
names, and alot do, find the cups version through the re-direction that
occurs via symlinks.
ln -s lpr.cups lpr
ln -s lprm.cups lprm
ln -s lpq.cups lpq
Of course this is done "inside" the directory where the files reside.
