       -r   The DREADED REMOVE AFTER PRINTING option.  Beware,  for  lpr
will
            delete  the  files  after  spooling  them.  Present by demand
from
            users for compatibility with other  Berkeley  lpr
implementation,
            but really should NOT be present.


Thus eliminating the rm %s.  The thing is that the document does not reach
that far.  It only spools a 0 byte file.  The spool directory does not
matter.  The directory permissions for the spool file are 1777 so users can
create spool jobs there.
