Lorem ipsum has been used for greeking since long before computers were invented. My speculation is that the term greeking comes from "it's all Greek to me" and is basically a bit of printers' humor.

My preferred Lorem Ipsum generator, www.lipsum.com, says:
"Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting
industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever
since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and
scrambled it to make a type specimen book.
