Indeed naming the printers and the shares the same feels natural to me too. I got this from my previous job previous sysadmin (happens to be iffy, also a member of Korg) and just kept it up cause it worked great and felt ok. We never had any problems with it.
All was setup by a standard naming rule xxx(for city location) xxx (for type or department) xx (two numbers) so AMSPRN01 would be for Amsterdam-Printer-One and ROTMRK01 would be for Rotterdam-Marketing Workstation-One.

Names like HP_LJ4050_Sales_blah_evenmoreblah suck imho.

But the manual could be a little clearer on this I think.
