Ah, a man after my own heart. :-) The bigger the monitor, and the
better-connected the system, the less you miss a printer.

Neato. That's different than lprng though right? That's what I'm using,
anyway I can also do lpr/lpq/ etc remotely from other machines
and even had my Mac printing via the network once. (I was labeling file
folders, needed a word processor with some nice big fonts, and couldn't
do it purely virtually) From what I understood rlpr tries to be better
in some way?

Try to find a copy of tiger.ps, it's the classic Postscript test file.
It has multiple grayscales so is a good test of dithering quality.
