          /usr/spool/lp/etc/util/mkPS printer tty

     DESCRIPTION
          mkPS creates a filter program that controls a LaserWriter
          printer, then registers the printer with LP.  A log file is

          lpadmin (1M)). tty is a tty in /dev that the printer is
          attached to.  After running this program, you might consider
          making this printer the default printer using lpadmin(1M).

          Run this program as superuser from directory
          /usr/spool/lp/etc/util.

     FILES
          /dev/ttyn
