this seems like a mis configured print filter on your sun machine.
what you need to do instead is configure your solaris machine to
be its own print server for the printer, so the solaris interface script will send the right format to the printer
Do the following:
lpadmin -x printer_name
lpadmin -p printer_name -v /dev/null -m netstandard
lpadmin -p printer_name -T unknown -I any
lpadmin -p printer_name -o protocol=tcp -o dest=printer_ipaddres:9100
/usr/bin/enable printer_name
/usr/sbin/accept printer_name
Note:
printer_name will be the name of your printer while printer_ipaddress is the ip address of your printer.

Fairly simple question, I think. Still trying to get my head around AIX print queues. Most of our problems seem to stem from print queues going down. This generates help-desk calls when users call up to get their queues started or to get rid of the emails that qdaemon sends them.
