The Unix timestamp is represented as time_t, which is usually a signed
long value. A date is represented a the number of seconds elapsed since
January 1st 1970, 0:00:00. The easy way to figure out the wrap date is
by running the following code:
-snip-
#include <stdio.h>
#include <limit.h>
#include <time.h>
void main( int argc, char **argv )
{
time_t wrap = LONG_MAX;
printf("Wrap will occur at %s", asctime( gmtime(&wrap_tm) ) );
}

I suppose this would work the same way as setting up any other remote
printer: by creating a set of two spools. SDee the details in the
LPR-HOWTO.
