Hi Dave
I think an lpc redo on the job will get it going again

OK, this may be a dumb question.
We recently, for the first time, started seeing a problem that's been
discussed in this list: the printer is busy, or out of paper, or off, and
jobs are removed from the queue because of this. The solution given, which
we've now implemented, was to set save_on_error in lpd.conf.
Up to a point, this works. The jobs no longer vanish out of the queue.
Instead, they sit there saying ERROR: removing job due to errors.
The only way I've found to actually print them is to identify the data
file in the spool directory, copy it out, print that. This isn't
acceptable. I'm sure there's a way around this, but I can't find it.
If I do an lpc release on them, they sit there in the queue with a rank
listing remove (and I think they're eventually removed, though I'm not
sure).
What should I be doing? I've got people breathing fire down my neck on
this.
