easier to just use Print Center...
Authored by: sjonke on Jun 18, '02 10:24:50AM

I have not tried changing the queue name but my understanding has been (and the word "queue" would seem to imply) that this is the name of a queue. :) If that queue does not exist I suppose it may go back to the default queue, but there may be some side effects associated with that (I don't know). Moreover, if there IS a queue with that name you might get unexpected printing results.

I think that the "queue name" is the name of the queue that the print centre creates, and that the default name for the queue is the name of the printer, but that you can have it named whatever you want via this box.

In any case, how likely is it that somehow your system is going to generate a printer queue name of "the printer in Fred's office" by itself?

Additionally, the Print Center Help has directions to use this dialogue to "give the printer a better name" with no cautions about naming conflicts.
