(where 1.2.3.4 is the printer IP address and 9100 the printer stream port)
foomatic-rip(1) does *not* speak LPD (port 515).
If the printer does not support raw printing over port 9100, it must be

then accessed over LPD by the clients (there is no need to setup any
print filter on the clients since it will run on the print server).
