Modify the printcap entry:
ds0|lp1:\
:lp=@tsb0c3/prds3:\
:sd=/usr/spool/lpd1:

tsb0c3
entry identifies the access server internet address and is an entry in
/etc/hosts
for the access server. The
prds3
entry identifies the access server TCP port number and is
an entry in
/etc/services

16.20.48.43 tsb0c3.lkg.dec.com tsb0c3
prds3 2010/tcp
