We have similar problems with our HP boxes and have never figured it out. Just out of curiosity, how are your queues configured? We are sending to JetDirect cards on various HP printers. I've seen similar problems while doing some consulting gigs and even worked with HP support at one point and we were never able to figure out why it happened even after sending all sorts of logs to HP after several occurances. Nothing ever seems to be wrong with the physical printer, no jams, it's not out of paper, memory usage is fine, etc.

Hi all
I have a really strange situation. This morning I ran lpstat -p and it didn't return any results. I ran lpstat -t and the scheduler is running.
How strange, it seems all the printers have disappeared from my server.
Can anyone perhaps explain to me how this is possible? (4 Replies)

lpmove
lpmove(1M) System Administration Commands lpmove(1M)
NAME
lpmove - move print requests
SYNOPSIS
lpmove [request-ID] destination
lpmove source destination
DESCRIPTION
The lpmove command moves print requests queued by lp(1) or lpr(1B) between destinations.
The first form of lpmove moves specific print requests (request-ID) to a specific destination.
The second form of the lpmove command moves all print requests from one destination (destination1) to another (destination2). This form of
lpmove also rejects new print requests for destination1.
lpmove moves individual requests or entire queues only within an instance of a print service, not between a local and a remote queues or
local queues on different instances of a print service. Requests can only be moved if the print service or protocol supports it. The LP
print server and IPP print protocol both support moving requests between queues. The BSD print protocol does not.
When moving requests, lpmove does not check the acceptance status of the destination to which the print requests are being moved (see
accept(1M)). lpmove does not move requests that have options (for example, content type or requiring a special form) that cannot be handled
by the new destination.
OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
request-ID The specific print request to be moved. Specify request-ID as the identifier associated with a print request as reported by
lpstat. See lpstat(1).
destination The name of the printer or class of printers (see lpadmin(1M)) to which lpmove moves a specified print request. Specify des-
tination using atomic, URI-style (scheme://endpoint), POSIX-style (server:destination) syntax.
source The name of the destination from which lpmove moves all print requests. Specify destination using atomic, URI-style
(scheme://endpoint), POSIX-style (server:destination) syntax.
See printers.conf(4) for information regarding the naming conventions for atomic names and standards(5) for information regarding POSIX.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion.
non-zero An error occurred.
FILES
