look for /etc/default/lp or whatever looks close on your system
then change banners=1 to 0
or edit the lp/interface/(printername) file and force banners to be 0
 OR
make sure your PATH looks at $home/bin first and put something like this in 
your bin:  
1. make an executable file named lp 
2. put the commands in that your tired of typing e.g.: /bin/lp -obanners 
-ocompressed -dlazer
and away you go...
