WIN:Printername syntax

fP v5.0.3, WINXP client, Windows 2000 server w/ SP3.

I have a client that I just upgraded from fP v4.8 (DOS) to the current
version of fP.  They have a networked printer with the following name being
displayed in their Printers and Faxes folder: 
Pebbles on APRCDC
If you select properties of the printer, the General tab displays "Pebbles"
underneath the tabs.  The Ports tab says the port is IP_192.168.0.13.

The client has used each of the following as their default printer:

WIN:Pebbles on APRCDC
WIN: Pebbles
WIN:IP_192.168.0.13

Generating a print request with each of the above as the default fP printer
generates an error stating "resource not available".

Anyone see what I have wrong?
