Description

The LPDDEST statement specifies the LPD processing parameters for a given printer queue or a group of printer queues; all of which have the same common printer queue name prefix.

LPDDEST Parameters

This section describes the LPDDEST parameters:

QDEST= cccccccc | cccc*

This parameter specifies an exact target printer queue name cccccccc or a generic printer queue name cccc* for which this LPDDEST parameter set is used. When a print request is received, the best matching LPDDEST parameter set is used. The best match on QDEST takes precedence over a match on QHOST. There is no default value.

QHOST= cccccccc | cccc*

This parameter specifies an exact origin host name cccccccc or a generic origin host name cccc* for which this LPDDEST parameter set is used. When a print request is received, the best matching LPDDEST parameter set is used. The best match on QDEST takes precedence over match on QHOST. There is no default value.
