I have a HP Deskjet 932C.  I was having problems with printing out large
douments - right in the middle of the print job the job would stop.  lpq
would complain that the printer was offline.  The only fix I found was
to reboot the computer.

I fixed the problem by switching to using polling mode (using
lptcontrol).

Is this a known bug with the lpt drivers?
