Yes, I am using CUPS.  I installed cupsys-bsd right from the start.

As I said in the original post, this seems to be a problem with piping, 
not with lpr.  I can print using 'lpr filename', but can not do 'ls | 
lpr'.  I can print from kate, but not from my homegrown editor written 
in Python which pipes the text to lpr.  All of these methods worked up 
untill a few days ago.  Now, almopst nothing works.
