That way it knows the port on the printserver, as well as the "language" to use. It is like using http:// or ftp:// in a web browser. You use lpd://, ipp://, smb://, etc in CUPS. For example, I have: DeviceURI ipp://192.168.1.101:631/ipp and DeviceURI parallel:/dev/lp0 for 2 of my printers in /etc/cups/printers.conf.
