Bob,

The GEMPAK configuration for printers in the GUI programs is 
$GEMTBL/config/printer.tbl. This table allows you to configure the color
and paper attributes.

For default printing, you can configure the LP commans and flags in
$NAWIPS/Gemenviron at the very bottom where LP and LPFLAG are defined.
