# Purpose: orginate connections from these ports
#   default originate_port=512 1023  (STRING)

If you use originate_port=0
   you get the first 'non-privileged' port.

LPRng accepts connections from all ports.
Solaris LPD acceptcs connections ONLY from privileged ports (1-1023)

Some network printer boxes accept ONLY from privileged ports (1-1023)
  other from any ports.

Your mileage may vary.  See 'LPRng-HOWTO, Chapter 19. RFC 1179 - Line
Printer Daemon Protocol' for the hideous details.
