Its not likely that the problem is caused by the content. Can you try the following. Connect the printer to a networked workstation running MS Windows and then set up the printer on SCO as a network printer, using either VisionFS or Samba. Then even if the problem still occurs you will not have to reboot the server, and if it doesn't recur you can probably assume the problem is somewhere in the usb driver or the firmware.

Is there a way to cancel all print jobs for a specific print queue with a single command instead of cancelling them one by one?
