Hello all,
 
The setup I have here is reasonably normal. I have the printer attached to a SCO OpenServer 5 machine and my Red Hat 7.2 box is setup to print there and has been working fine for the past year or so.
 
Ever since yesterday, for some unknown reason, printing from the Linux box will just not work. I can print from the SCO box (of course) and on the Windows PC (the Windows PC is setup to print directly to the SCO box) and have no problem. But nothing happens from the Linux box.
 
I've looked and looked and can't work out what is wrong with it.
I've included the output of lpstat -t and the printer log file if it helps. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The 'error transferring data' bit is obviously what is wrong, but I have no idea what caused this.
Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
