A printer can have several different names.

- HPLaserJ - the printer object name
- LPT1 - the port the printer is attached to
- lp - the name the BR gives the printer
- lpt1 - the name the ABR gives the printer
- \pipe\lpd0 - the pipe assocated with the printer

So context is important. The printer name you specify in a certain
command has to match what the command is expecting. Sometimes, even case
is important.

Does that answer your question?
