🚀 go-pugleaf

We have a Sun LaserWriter attached to our server (9600 baud) and we talk
to it via 'lpr'.  Well, it most fine most of the time but it gets into a
mode where every job queued hangs - usually after printing the banner.  A
'ps' reveals that 'psbanner lw' is just sitting there idle.

Killing the deamon and removing the last job printed and then restarting
the deamon allows the next job to print, but it too hangs after the banner
page.  We've also tried cycling the power on the printer but with no
different results.  Some how it eventually gets back into the proper frame
of mind and cranks away with no problems.

The job dosen't always stop after the banner page, sometimes during the
data being printed too.

Anyone have an idea of what's going on?  I suspect an Xon/off handshake
problem but don't have the equipment to verify it.

All suggestions and/or magic spells welcome!

Thanks,
