remote print
I have a remote printing problem:
I am running SCO Unix 5.0.6j with remote printing set up to a printserver. I have done this a number of times on a number of different SCO Unix servers, so I am almost positive that I have everything set up correctly.
I even have a good listing when I do lpstat -t. It shows the following:
LPD Server):
(P2)STATE: Idle
TYPE: Parallel
PRINTER STATUS: On-Line
The problem is when I send a print job to the printer, I get the following:
printer L2 waiting for auto-retry. available.
stopped with printer fault
L2-182856 root 4237 Apr 08 08:05
L2:
queuing is enabled
(LPD Server):
(P2)STATE: Idle
TYPE: Parallel
PRINTER STATUS: On-Line
One point to keep in mind, I have been able to set up a Windows pc printing to this printer without a problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
thanks!

startsrv
STARTSRV(8) System Manager's Manual STARTSRV(8)
NAME
startsrv - invoke ttysrv for a particular host.
SYNOPSIS
startsrv host
DESCRIPTION
startsrv fires up ttysrv for a given host. It will kill any already running instance for that host, then read /etc/remote-
tty/opt/<host>.srv for any options to pass to ttysrv (defaulting to those that set 9600,8n1), /etc/remote-tty/prot/<host>.sock for the per-
missions the socket should be set to (default 660), /etc/remote-tty/owner/<host>.sock for the owner of the socket (default rttymgr:dialout)
and /etc/remote-tty/prot/<host>.log for the permissions of the logfile (default 640).
The device node used is /etc/remote-tty/dev/<host>. This will normally be a symlink to the correct file in /dev.
ttysrv is configured to log to /var/log/remote-tty/<host>/<host>, with a pidfile at /var/run/remote-tty/pid/<host> and the socket at
/var/run/remote-tty/sock/<host>.
SEE ALSO
remote-tty(1), ttysrv(8).
