AIX Print Server

I have an AIX print server configured to allow anyone to print to it. The hosts.lpd file contains a "+" entry. Despite this, the lpd daemon insists on doing a reverse DNS lookup to get a hostname. This causes problems with PC's using DHCP because reverse DNS is not very reliable on these.

Is it possible to configure lpd to not do reverse DNS and allow printing?
