G'day all,

Our HP8100 series line of printers are very busy processing thousands
of jobs every day.  Very frequently, we get "40 EIO 1 BAD TRANSMITION"
error on the front pannels.  To continue with printing, one must press
the <GO> button; sometimes this results in data loss and is quite a
concern for us.

Now, the nature of this message indicates  connection breakdown
somwhere along the line between board->network card->cable none of
which it turns out to be true, since we're running 3 HP8100 in
parallel and we get this problem on all 3.

I wonder if anyone has experienced this or has a plaussible
explanation for such behaviour.  The IDLE_TIMEOUT is set to 90 that
should be more the enough for the connection to stay open.

We're running LPRng-3.6.24 and ifhp-3.3.21.


Thanks in advance,

-- John
