Hi,

hacking around with lpd and printcap and writing my own lpf, I discovered
the printcap br# option is assigned to some BR variable that happens to be a
short. Unfortunately, these days the tty speed may well exceed 32767 :)

Well, the BR declaration is in a .c file, and an external definition in some
.h file. Note that setting the baudrate to 57600 requires a bit of further
hacking in the pk0.2.3-patched tty (though not com) driver of 386bsd0.1

That's all for now.
