Printing problems with E/L



The FAQ says that in default configs, lpr should work, and if you want
one can write a script executor_filter that works like so:

executor_filter < faff.ps


So I wrote a script 

#! /bin/sh
lpr #1

That does what the FAQ say it should. The problem is that I get a text
printout of the postscript output file at the printer.

TexEdit adds an extra % sign in front of %! PS-Adobe-3.0 to make it like
%%! PS-Adobe-3.0

AFAIK, any line with a prepended %% is a comment in postcript. Thus
the whole file is seen by the drivers-lpr-printers as text and not
postscript. How can one remedy this?

Thanks
