-printername
-The printer name to validate\&.

-Printer names are taken from the first field in each record in the printcap file, single printer names and sets of aliases separated by vertical bars ("|") are recognized\&. Note that no validation or checking of the printcap syntax is done beyond that required to extract the printer name\&. It may be that the print spooling system is more forgiving or less forgiving than \fBtestprns\fR\&. However, if \fBtestprns\fR finds the printer then \fBsmbd\fR(8) should do so as well\&.
