I have implemented this using UUX commands; below is a sample command
which can be included in a standard lp/interfaces script, as appropriate.
uux "remote!lp !myfile1" [this would print myfile on a printer on remote]
Of course, you could use any/all flags to the standard lp command such as
the '-d' option; as shown above, the local file would print on the remote
machine's DEFAULT printer (assuming a default has been chosen!). You
could also specify options with the '-o', etc.
BTW, the double quotes appear to be necessary...
