Well, every year again we have strange troubles with our relatively primitive set up printserver. Printserver is a FBSD 4.4-RC machine, buffering incoming printjobs from other hosts and sending it as a kind of gateway to e HP JetDirect 500X printserver. Sending a huge printjob (about 350 MB) seems to kill or disturb the lpd functions. All smaller jobs are to be printed the normal way. We use no limitations within /etc/printcap or by other quoting systems. A further phenomenon is that I cannot access the lpd via lpc on the printserver itself. lpq -a reports an error about a non accessible server, lpc reports that it also can not access the local lpd. From remote hosts this seems to be all right, so I think there must be a misconfiguration or a kind of bug on the printserver itself. Does anyone has a tip, a hint? Thanks al ot in advance, Oliver -- MfG O.
