lpr -P <printer name> <name of file to print>
Further driver configuration on Linux is left to the customer.
When you enter the Queue Name, be sure not to add a colon (:) or
any other punctuation. Just use the Queue Name, exactly as it
appears in the LPD Printer Utility dialog on the thin client appliance.
For more information, see "Configuring the appliance for LPR/LPD
printing" on page 140.
Although Windows 2000/2003 and Windows NT 4.0 use the term
"name of printer" to prompt for information when defining an LPR
printer, the correct entry is the appropriate Queue Name (see above).
For example, if you attached the printer to the parallel port, you
would enter the Queue Name "LPT1" (without any punctuation).
