I do use lpd system. It works, but is clunky and sometimes frustrating to get everything working for a new printer, local or network. It also totally fails on some print jobs, badly sent ones, but they just sit there in the queue and need to be manually removed. Ugh! I will give that a go unless someone else is doing it. Trying to fix bad old code should be very educational. I'm definitely not qualified to work on the existing excellent code. That's a job for the pro's that have more important work to do.
