It has dependencies which you need to build first, and then link with
the c file in question.
You'll need to download the whole tarball, and follow the instructions
to build it. Just don't install it, instead go into the pbm subdirectory
and grab the binaries. If ldd on them shows a non-libc dependency then
copy that out too.

Sorry. I confused pbmtolps with pbmtolj. Use that first command I gave:
pbmtolj filename.pbm >/dev/lp1
Of course, assuming an lj printer is on /dev/lp1.
