Yes, I try to get help on printing and nothing shows up!  It's in the
preferences help file:

Here's my previewcommand (for an RS/6000 w/ ghostview):

*.previewcommand: ezprint -q -t /tmp/%s.n | eqn -Tpsc | psroff -t >
/tmp/%s.ps; ghostview /tmp/%s.ps; rm /tmp/%s.ps

[aside: ghostview doesn't handle taking stdio very well, that's why I
redirect to another tmp file.]

In your case, add this line to your preferences file:

*.printcommand: ezprint -q -t /tmp/%s.n | eqn -Tpsc | troff -Tpsc |
psdit | lpr -Ppsb115
