Made the changes with global /etc/csh.cshrc and it did not work :(
[olivares at quadcore ~]$ cat /etc/csh.cshrc
# $FreeBSD: src/etc/csh.cshrc,v 1.3.56.1.6.1 2010/12/21 17:09:25 kensmith Exp $

# System-wide .cshrc file for csh(1).
setenv PRINTER Deskjet
But if I change lpr to lpr -P Deskjet, I can print. Then I will need
to play with it some more?
Thanks for your help & valuable time.
Regards,
Antonio
