Thanks for the followup, RTM. Sorry about the missing information. This problem is occurring on Solaris 8. Your response makes sense in that these files can vary in size.
Only one type of print is sent to the print queue in question. Typically, a large number of debit memos are sent to be printed at one time. The order is important to the people who process the debit memos. In an attempt to rectify, I have put a wait into the script between LP statements, hoping that the delay will allow the file to be processed and the order to be maintained. Seems to be working fine so far, but the sample size is small.
