You haven't shown your printcap entry for the printer you have
attached to the server, but I'm making a wild guess that you
may have associated the printer and the port in the printcap
file with the 'op' and 'os' flags and you have also made the
association with the 'lcp' command as you have shown above.
This will not work.  You can either make the association in
the printcap file with the 'op' and 'os' flags and issue the
lcp command as 'lcp -s -h /dev/tty35' or delete the 'op' and
'os' flags from your printcap file and use the lcp command as
you did in your example.
