apply:

The remote host name is the name of the print server.
•
The remote printer name is the logical printer (L1 to L3 or L1 to L8).

You identify the service type as BSD if your UNIX system asks for the LPD type.
The LPD protocol that the print server uses meets BSD system standards.
•
Enter the service type as BSD if asked for the LPD type.
