lpr & printcap

We just hooked a HP laserjet + up to our 4D25 running 3.3.1 and fired up
both lp and lpr.  lp seems to work fine, but lpr prints messed up files.
Does anyone have a working printcap file for this type of printer (and/or
is this my problem? --or do I need a different device driver?).  We'd
like to get lpr working also.  Any help would be apprectiated.  Please
email me directly.
The HP laserjet + supports HPPCL so any setup files for the greater HP
laserjet family *should* work.  

Thanks
