Are you trying to print FROM a Mac to a remote printer using
LPD, or having some remote machine print to your Mac's printer via
LPD - I'm confused!

If the former, Apple's Laserwriter driver supports LPD - you
just need to use the Desktop Printer Manager software to configure
it. If you are looking to serve LPD from your Mac, you may be SOL
- the only LPD server for the Mac that I am aware of (from
Intercon/Ascend/Lucent/etc.) is no longer available.
