>Description:
I found a small inconsistency in the use markups of lpr(1)
error messages in the FreeBSD Handbook, Chapter 9 (``Printing'').
It is marked up as <errorname> and then marked up as a
<screen> message. I think this should be settled and I created
two different patches to choose from.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Solution #1: Replace <errorname> with <screen> (the preceding
paragraph is adjusted).
