Problems setting up printer.

I've read and reread the printers section of the
Handbook, but haven't been able to put together
a printcap that will print.

I have a Postscript HPLJ4100. 
It exists with that name in the dns.

Here is my attempt at a FreeBSD printcap:

lp:\
        :/lp:=9100 at HPLJ4100:\
        :sh:\
        :mx#0:\
        :sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
        :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\
        :if=/usr/local/libexec/enscript:

Since I will be ONLY passing it Postscript, it would
seem that the last line probably shouldn't be there,
but this was the last of a number of attempts.

Could someone tell me just WHAT I should be saying?
