Has anyone else noticed a problem with the SunOS 4.1.1 lpd software?  Here is
what I have encountered and it is a real bothersome problem....

If plain text files and output files from Lotus 1-2-3 v1.0 for Sun are sent
to the SPARCprinter, the file will get printed and then it will stay in the
spool and hold up the next file from printing, until I manually delete the
file in the spool directory and kickstart the daemon again.

The weird thing is that output from FrameMaker 2.1X works just fine.

The platform is an IPC with a SPARCprinter attached.

Any clues?

Your help is greatly appreciated.
