I have done so.  I was only interested in sending jobs to remote
printers.  Check out bu.edu: ~ftp/src/PRINTING/sgi-lpd.tar.Z which is
based on the (freed) 4.3 Tahoe version of lpr/lpd.  The tar also
contains AUX-lpd which is a set of diffs for a USG Unix port of
lpr/lpd which includes local printer support.
