help with printing

Is there a good site for setting up/learning lpr/lpd for a printer on OpenBSD? 
I've never used lpr for printing but need to print some email every so often on this machine.
I enabled the lp section in /etc/printcap, set localhost under /etc/hosts.equiv, tried reading man pages for lpd, but guess it's way over my head. 
I'm just trying to get my HP DJ870 setup to print email with mutt. 
I'm running 4.3

Will the FreeBSD pages work with setting the printer up for OpenBSD? 

Thanks.
Mike
