For some unknown reason, SCO's print queues default to using "extended RLP" mode, which is (surprise) only supported on SCO Openserver 5 systems.

That should unclog your queue. -Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
