Hi, We've got an lp setup where we generate around 500 files of postscript to a remote printer. Somehow, these files are not all queued in the remote queue. Of course we have plenty of space and we set the mx value to 0. When we stop the lpd on the originating system we see that every file gets queued correctly. After we start the lpd again, we see that after a random number of files, the rest of the files seem to be skipped. The total space in the queue is arond 50MB. This happens both when the remote printer is hanging of a 2.1.0 system vai the parallel port as well as with a printer with ethernet card and built in lpd. I therefor suspect the originating side. The originating system has a 2.0.5 lp setup, with the following printcap; ps2:HP 5 M:\ :lp=/dev/null:\ :sd=/var/spool/lpd/ps2:\ :rm=lj4plus.IAEhv.nl:\ :rp=raw:\ :lf=/var/log/lpd-errs:\ :pl#64:pw#80:mx#0:\ :rg=wheel:\ :sh:sf:tr=\004: -Guido
