These does NOT work.
Authored by: modingo on Aug 25, '03 03:31:45AM

I followed these instructions completely and without a single typo. It simply will not print with the ---->% lpr -P C42UX printer

I get this:
[xx-xxx-xx-x:~] francesraabe% lpr -P C42UX printer
lpr: unable to print file: client-error-not-found

The LPD Queue name is C42UX and it prints from the host just fine. The remote (but networked) MacOS9 client can not locate the C42UX printer either. The Desktop Printer Utility was configured as mentioned for this classic mac with the appropriate IP & Queue name.

If anyone has successfully done this with these instructions, please post here and explain how you did this. It would surely be amazing if it actually worked!
