Printer-based lpd
In this configuration, the printer appears as a host running a line printer
daemon.

LPD
Network Card
Generally, printer-based lpd is easiest to use on BSD UNIX systems
that require an entry in the printcap file once the Network Card has its
IP information. Some UNIX System V systems place restrictions on
support of remote lpr/lpd printers, requiring that the host-based lpr/lpd
approach be used.
On many UNIX systems, you can choose between host-resident
printing or print server-regident printing. The following shows the
differences between the two types of printing.
