Another update: I have just installed vanilla OpenSolaris 98 and tried 
it out.
I added a printer queue to my local print server using the following option:

in the Add dialog:
Type: Remote LPD (BSD,RFC1179)    (This is equivalent to Add Access on 
the Java basedPrint Manager)
Print Server: servername.ireland
Queue Name: pdub0407dbl (which is actually a queue on the print server)

Local Queue Name: pdub0407dbl

Then click on Add, the network queue was created and then I open up Firefox.
Printed a few different web pages, no crash at all.

So your input is very important to verify whether there is a genuine bug 
or just an ease of use.
I agree that having a LPD option at the top end of Type could be confusing.
