You need the queue name rp=LPT1_PASSTHRU
This is described in the manual for the Intel device. It is also amongst the
excesses of the LPRng documentation. Getting information out of that is like
panning for gold in a river of sand. The gold is there if you have enough
time on your hands to search for it.
This is my printcap for an LJ 5000, on R H 7 using LPRng.
##PRINTTOOL3## REMOTE POSTSCRIPT 1200x1200 a4 {} PostScript Default {}
lp|lj5k:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lj5k:\
:mx#0:\
:sh:\
:rm=192.168.128.28:\
:rp=LPT1_PASSTHRU:\
:if=/var/spool/lpd/lj5k/filter:
If anyone knows how to get LPRng to work with the LJ 5000 duplexer, please let
us know!

I think it is fine. It works well for us. But the HP name "raw" is easier to
remember.
