The umask command in BSD is used to set default permissions for files or directories the user creates1. The umask value is permissions to deny, taken off whatever permissions would be given by default2. The default permission values for files are 666 (rw-rw-rw-), meaning read and write for user, group, and others3. The umask value of 022 means that the permissions to deny are 022 (—w–w-), meaning write for group and others. To calculate the default permissions for newly created files, we need to subtractthe umask value from the default permission value, using bitwise AND operation4. For example:

666 - 022 = 644 rw-rw-rw- - —w–w- = rw-r–r–

Therefore, the default permissions for newly created files with a umask of 022 are 644 (rw-r–r–), meaning read and write for user, and read for group and others.

The /etc/printcap file on a BSD system defines the printers that are available by the Ipr printing system. The Ipr printing system is a BSD-compatible printing system that uses the lpd daemon to manage print jobs and spooling. The /etc/printcap file contains a series of entries, one for each printer, that specify the printer name, device, options, and filters. The format and syntax of the /etc/printcap file are described in the printcap(5) manual page. References:

The question mark (?) is a special character in regular expressions that modifies the preceding expression to match zero or one times. For example, the regular expression colou?r matches both color and colour, but not colouur or colr. The question mark is also used to make an expression non-greedy, meaning that it will match the shortest possible string instead of the longest. For example, the regular expression <.?> matches the first pair of angle brackets in a string, while <.> matches the entire string enclosed by the outermost pair of angle brackets. References:
