    Mac Driver setup

    On the "printer list" dialog page, there is a space for the "queue name". What should I put there for a C2050?

      It's "lp" That's "ell pee". Lower case, no quotes.

              The "lp" queue name isn't at all specific to Macs; it is used any time you print LPR with any OS - DOS, Windows, UNIX, you name it.

              Where we normally see the difference is with Fieries, as they broadcast print, hold, and direct as LPR ports.

              Some years back, Ricoh used PORT1, all caps, but that ended at least 8-10 years ago.
