One issue into which I've run is that the Tektronix printers all seem to
come with the AppSocket protocol disabled. You can re-enable it on the
web interface.
On a related note, the Job Pipelining option that is on a lot of
Phasers, if not all of them, sounds inherently like a bad idea. Is this
in fact the case?

If you need help, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or lprng-requests
or lprng-digest-requests) with the word 'help' in the body. For the impatient,
to subscribe to a list with name LIST, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
with: | example:
subscribe LIST <mailaddr> | subscribe lprng-digest [EMAIL PROTECTED]
unsubscribe LIST <mailaddr> | unsubscribe lprng [EMAIL PROTECTED]
If you have major problems, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word
LPRNGLIST in the SUBJECT line.
