Well, if you read your original post, LPRngTool wasn't mentioned until
several items in, leading me to beleive that you had edited by hand to set
up the queues -- otherwise, not being familiar with LPRngTool, I probably
would not have chimed in. ;)

Umm... nuh-uh. See, this is where it seems like there's some confusion.
When printing via TCP/IP on the JetDirect interface, there are NO queues
and you print on port 9100. If you want to print to an "rp" on a remote
printer, you are speaking of RFC1179 LPR printing -- distinctly different.
One cannot (again, to my knowledge) combine the two. Perhaps in LPRngTool
you have somehow selected LPR and TCP/IP simultaneously and this is why
it's doing this...?

Agreed! :)

We all make mistakes... I think you're referring to those who do so more
than others. :)
