OK, so a simple question: I want a print queue that is able to do the following:

ls -1 | lp
man which | lp
print from Mozilla and have the output come out pretty, as I see it in the 
print preview
print from StarOffice/OpenOffice.org and have the output come out as I see it

What should the magical incantation for lpadmin be? The printer is a Lexmark 
C524dn, a PS3 printer.
