Hello there! I have been digging around the docs for quite a while, but I haven't been able to find a solution. I hope you can help me. The setup is this: We run a Debian Linux print server, with lprng 3.8.15-1 installed. It has a Brother MFC-9870 on the parallel port. We use the hl7x0 magicfilter to filter the print jobs, and it prints fine as long as it prints. The problem arises when a client sends multiple jobs close in time. Example:
client> lpr test1 && lpr test2 && lpr test3 Each test file is pure text, seven characters long The client logs (in /var/spool/lpd/lp/status.pr) that it successfully sends and prints each job, exact same output save job number and subserver PID. The server, however, takes the first job (usually) and prints it fine and leaves output of this in status.pr. For the two subsequent jobs, however, the only listing in the server's status.pr is that the job has been removed. Example: job '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' removed at 2003-04-02-13:02:41.506 ## [EMAIL PROTECTED] number=902 process=32675 The jobs never appear on the lpq or elsewhere except for the one line in status.pr. I have tried tweaking the connect_grace, network_connect_grace and connect_interval in lpd.conf both on server and client, but to no avail. Does anyone have a clue?
