Line printer requester/line printer daemon (LPR/LPD) printing sends print information from a remote output queue to remote servers or printers. This printing method is supported by most hardware, but provides less error handling support than other options. It also provides the least amount of print function, and does not support page range selection or job accounting.
This printing method requires that you configure remote output queues for the remote printers. Most printers and adapters will support this protocol. See Configure LPR/LPD for information about how to configure LPR/LPD printing.
