AIX v5.2 Printer Question
Hi All,

I have an AIX server runing v5.2.0.0 OS and i am trying to print to a printer attached to the parallel port. I have successfully configured a printer and a print queue. However, when i submit the job i get the following error

Message from queueing system:
0781-088 Queue z:lp0 went down, job is still queued:
Backend: /usr/lib/lpd/piobe //TestZeb6Prt.txt
Backend Exit Value: EXITFATAL (0100)
Job Submit Time: Jun 21 17:59:07 2005. Current Time: Jun 21 17:59:28 2005
Use local problem reporting procedures.
<EOT>

The printer in question is a Zebra S600 label printer.

Appreciate your help.

lpq

lpq(1)								    Apple Inc.								    lpq(1)

NAME

       lpq - show printer queue status

SYNOPSIS

       lpq [ -E ] [ -U username ] [ -h server[:port] ] [ -P destination[/instance] ] [ -a ] [ -l ] [ +interval ]

DESCRIPTION

       lpq  shows the current print queue status on the named printer. Jobs queued on the default destination will be shown if no printer or class
       is specified on the command-line.

       The +interval option allows you to continuously report the jobs in the queue until the queue is empty; the list of jobs is shown once every
       interval seconds.

OPTIONS

       lpq supports the following options:

       -E
	    Forces encryption when connecting to the server.

       -P destination[/instance]
	    Specifies an alternate printer or class name.

       -U username
	    Specifies an alternate username.

       -a
	    Reports jobs on all printers.

       -h server[:port]
	    Specifies an alternate server.

       -l
	    Requests a more verbose (long) reporting format.
