Hmm, I just have every host explicitly named in /etc/hosts.lpd like this:

  junky.cite.kotnet.org
  tailske.cite.kotnet.org
  defiant.cite.kotnet.org

And it works. Well at least from junky; the guys that own tailske and defiant
never bothered to set up their printing environments.

Anyway, all I did on junky to get it working is:
 * fire up a printtool
 * choose to add a network printer
 * fill in host and printqueue name
 * select the same printer driver as on the box that controls the printer
 * set paper size and such trivial things, and that's it.
