printer queue goes down by printing

Post by drki.. » Fri, 25 Aug 2000 04:00:00



Hello,

I 've a printer problem on an SP node (AIX 4.3.2.0).
we have 4 print queues on that node (2 IBM3130, 1 NT-Print-server, 1
Sun-printserver), the ibm and nt printers work, the sun doesn't.
Every time you print the queue goes down.(lpr -P<printername>
/etc/qconfig) and can't be restarted as long as the jobfile exists in
/var/spool/lpd/qdir
On a other node with the same printerconfiguration (<- /etc/qconfig) the
Sunprinter works. There are no restrictions on the sun (<- hosts.equiv).
ping works in both directions. nameresolution is o.k..
There are no errors in the syslog.

I dont have any more ideas to fix the problem.

MfG

Do you get status back from the Sun in lpstat?
Can you do it from the command-line?
    /usr/lib/lpd/rembak -S sunServerHostName -P SunPrintQueue

Regards,
Paul

1. Print Queue goes down when error in printer

Hello,

If the printer runs out of paper or jams, the queue goes down and that is
not what we want.

We run AIX 4.2.1.x and 4.3.x on all the systems we have the same problem.
Remote printserver  with backend timer 14400 in /etc/qconfig !

Any help would be appreciated
Thanks in advance.
