Dunno if this will help your specific problem, but Rick Rankin posted an 
"lpr" program to this mailing list in July 2000 (check the mailing list 
archives).  He and I have discussed adding that to the cygutils package 
in the near future, but if you're in a hurry you can grab the source 
code from the ml archives.
