Still trying to figure out what "this" is.

It is the tcpip$printcap.dat entry?

HTEST|htest:\
        :lf=/TCPIP$LPD_ROOT/000000/HTEST.LOG:\
        :lp=HTEST:\
        :rm=666.16.5.14:\
        :rp=RTO_HSFG89:\
        :sd=/TCPIP$LPD_ROOT/HTEST:

or the queue?:

Server queue HTEST, idle, on EESN::, mounted form DEFAULT
  /BASE_PRIORITY=4 /DEFAULT=(FEED,FORM=DEFAULT) Lowercase /OWNER=
[SYSTEM]
  /PROCESSOR=TCPIP$LPD_SMB /PROTECTION=(S:M,O:D,G:R,W:S)


BTW, we tried a name instead of a IP numeric address, but we go the
same reject message. (I altered the Ip numeric to 666)
