lpr printing through firewall



Hi:

I have an AIX 5.3 host behind a couple of firewalls. There is a need to print to a network printer on the other side of these firewalls. For other applications this host has access to a socks server. Do you know of a tool that allows me to do this, i.e., socksified lpr, socks client, w/o punching a hole through the firewall?

TIA,
