Other platforms, at least those which are Posix-compliant, don't need
to set printer-name, they need to set lpr-program and (optionally)
ps-lpr-program, because on those platforms you simply pipe the text to
a program which then takes care of spooling and printing.
printer-name was invented for MS-DOS and MS-Windows.

Yes; see dos-w32.el. Unless the user customizes printer-name, the
result of default-printer-name is used.
