For an NT print queue "FOO" on NT server "BAR" with an NT user login
"johndoe", password "secret":
In /etc/printcap:
foo:\
:cm=HP LaserJet 4050:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/foo:\
:af=/var/spool/lpd/foo/acct:\
:if=/usr/bin/smbprint:\
:mx=0:\
:lp=/dev/null:
Spool directory /var/spool/lpd/foo must exist.
In /var/spool/lpd/foo/.config:
server=BAR
service=foo
username="johndoe"
password="secret"
