* lpr: updated
`lpr --help` yields:
`Usage: lpr [options] [file(s)]
Options:

-E Encrypt the connection to the server
-H server[:port] Connect to the named server and port
-m Send an email notification when the job completes
-o option[=value] Specify a printer-specific option
-o job-sheets=standard Print a banner page with the job
-o media=size Specify the media size to use

Here, it says that that in stead of underscores at two_sided_long_edge, it should have dashes, two-sided-long-edge. Without these, the command is essentially useless.
