>
> Hello.
>
> I have recently installed Novell NDPS and we are using for the
> majority of our printers. I have a Compaq True64 system that I need
> to print to several NDPS printers. When I do that with True64's lpd,
> I get the wonder staircaseing effect. So, I installed Lprng, but for
> some reason the same machine that was printing with lpd, will not talk
> to NDPS with Lprng. When I attempt to print, the job sits there and
> retries three times and then just gets removed.
>
> If anyone has any experience with this, please drop me a line.
>
> True64 4.0D sp6
> NDPS 2.1
> Lprng 3.6.19

> Thank you.

Try setting :bk in printcap and make sure that the server
is actually trying to print, not the client. You must also get
make sure that the case of the printer queue used on the Novell
system is all lower case, and 8 letters long, no spaces.
Don't ask. You don't want to know.
