Actually, DECNET/ULTRIX does provide a rudimentary feature for printing
files remotely: The "-P" flag to dcp will print to the default printer
(I believe this is the VMS logical SYS$PRINTER)
It gets a little stickey if you want to select the queue you would like
to print to:
Sufficiently sophisticated hacks have created shell scripts for print
filters that create VMS jobs to do the copy/print/delete using the "dcp
-S" option to submit the job to the VMS batch queue sys$batch.
