>Description:

We have 5 hosts which send log messages to this FreeBSD machine's syslogd.

And this FreeBSD machine sets log messages output to /dev/lpt0.

When I turn off the printer's power for adding paper, after a while,

the FreeBSD machine hang up -- I can not get any responses from console

and I can not connect to it by ssh (it has run sshd). 

But it is not down yet -- It is still alive when I ping it.

When I turn on the printer's power (it prints some messages out), 

it responses as normal.

>How-To-Repeat:

	As Description.

>Fix:
	
	I have no idea about it.
