Logical Printer Architecture

Destinations/Queues

For every I/O port on the ethernet interface, there is at least one pre-defined
logical print queue or destination to accept print jobs destined for it. This
includes print job that is sent directly to the I/O port, such as port 9100. These
queue or destination names are pre-defined but can be changed by the user.

it. The model defines how the print job will be processed as it passes through
to the printer. Models are a set of mini filters that can be used to modify the
print data stream. The functions available for each model are as follows:
1. Insert carriage return after line feed
