can't get banner page to print



Hi,
I have a fairly new install of Potato r3 and 
have apt-get install magicfilter and lprng.

I have an hp 940c deskjet printer 
attached to /dev/lp0

I seem to have no troubles printing simple text files
such as /etc/hosts or whatever.
I would use this command to print:
lp /etc/hosts


but I can't figure out how to get the banner page to come out.

Here is the printcap created by magicfilter.
