(Our configuration:
DEC ScriptPrinter (LN03R) connected to UNIXes and VAXes
through a LAT (?) - something that can be used for printer-
connections.
Gating from UNIXes goes via a DECStation)
I've experienced something similar:
When printing certain types of files the printer
dies with 'ioerror' (the exact position in the file can be moved
by inserting/removing comments) or 'syntaxerror' (at places
where there (verifiable) are no syntax-errors (looks like
a part of the input "disappears" so that f.ex. strings are
seen as commands). If the file is split into smaller parts
they *always* print; the split is purely textual, so eventuel
PostScript errors would not go away.
Both the printer and the server (this LAT thing) claim to be
using XON/XOFF, no parity and same number of databits.
