-\fBprintername\fR
-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.
