Thanks,
Before I thought it's some hidden command in some package, did not
realize I should use aptitude show or dpkg -S or apt-cache search.
(actually I was not addicted to use those ways, I used to go to
debian webpage and looking for package.)
well, I have a derived problem, after installing lpr,
$ lpr ProbSet_2.pdf
lpr: lp: unknown printer
$ lpstat

lp ProbSet_2.pdf
request id is HP-LaserJet-P4015-226 (1 file(s))
I don't know what's going on.
thanks,

Hi,
which package contains the lpr command for printing.
Thanks,
I seem to recall from one of your posts that you are using cups. If
you installed the cups-bsd package, then lpr is already installed.
The lpr package conflicts with the cups-bsd package
$apt-cache show cups-bsd

Description-en: Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - BSD commands
The Common UNIX Printing System (or CUPS(tm)) is a printing system and
general replacement for lpr, lpd and the like. It supports the
Internet Printing Protocol (IPP), and has its own filtering driver
model for handling various document types.
.
This package provides the BSD commands for interacting with CUPS. It
is provided separately to allow CUPS to coexist with other printing
systems (to a small degree).
