Problems with lpr/lpd

Has anybody out there successfully gotten /usr/lib/lpd to work under
SR9.5 DOMAIN-IX?  I have a laserwriter connected over an sio line to
a DN460 which is running /usr/lib/lpd.  lpr spools the files just fine
and the jobs get processed.  The problem is that the only thing that comes
out from the printer is the banner page.  The body of the file is getting
swallowed up somewhere.  Attached is the /etc/printcap file I'm using.
Any help would be appreciated.
