The main point of lpd is to enable printing from remote machines
Hence the security problems
But we don't need a separate network protocol for that
There are plenty of protocols for moving files from place to place
FTP, HTTP, rsync, scp, etc...
So use one
rprint will be like print, but will scp the file into the remote queue directory
Hey, look at all the permission problems that disappear!
