This name is identified by the host in the

This is either the direct-connect printer itself or the UNIX computer. For
a direct-connect printer, this is whatever name was used to create the
printer while running
LPD.
For example, the TCP/IP printer being created will interact with a UNIX
computer running the print server component (
LPD). If LPD recognizes
a printer attached to the UNIX computer by the name Crisp, enter the
name Crisp in this box.
Unique Printer Queue Names
Although not mandatory, the printer queue names TEXT and PASSTHRU
are printer server defaults. The user may define a unique printer queue name
if the following conditions apply:
• The
LPD service cannot have a physical port number assigned. If it
does, then printer names TEXT or PASSTHRU must be used.
• The unique printer name must have a TCP port number other than 515
assigned to it. Lower case names are acceptable when enclosed within
double quotes (“ ”).
