Print Queues
I have a print queue set up with the following options: remote, standard processing, Hostname=(A Windows 2000 Server), bsd print spooler. It takes about 1 minute to transfer a 100 kb file and it times out (downs the queue) on larger files. When tested on a different system at a different location all works fine with a 1mb file being transfered in about 1 second. What is wrong?

rlp(1M) rlp(1M)
NAME
rlp - send LP print request to a remote system
SYNOPSIS
id class] job] title] [numcols]] font] num] file
DESCRIPTION
transfers a spooling request to a remote system to be printed. communicates with a spooling daemon on a remote system to transfer the
spooling request. Options can be set only on the original system (the system where the request originated). The file name must be last.
Transfers of a remote request use only the option and the file.
This command is intended to be used only by the spool system in response to the command and should not be invoked directly (see lp(1)).
Options
recognizes the following options and command-line arguments:
The argument id is the request ID.
Take the class argument as a job classification for use on the banner page.
Take the job argument as the job name to print on the banner page.
Use the title argument as the title used by instead of the file name (see pr(1)). is ignored unless the option is specified.
Suppress the printing of the banner page.
Cause the output to be indented.
If the next argument is numeric, it is used as the number of blanks to be printed before each line; otherwise, 8
characters are printed.
Specify a font to be mounted on font position k, where k is from through
Use the num argument number as the page width for
The following single-letter options are used to notify the LP spooler that the files are not standard text files. The spooling system uses
the appropriate filters (if the option is supported) to print the data accordingly. These options are mutually exclusive.
The files are assumed to contain data produced by
cifplot.
The files are assumed to contain data from
tex (DVI format).
Use a filter that interprets the first character of each line
as a standard FORTRAN carriage control character.
The files are assumed to contain standard plot data as produced by the
routines.
Use a filter that suppresses page breaks.
The files are assumed to contain data from
(device-independent
Use to format the files.
The files are assumed to contain data from
(cat phototypesetter commands).
The files are assumed to contain a raster image
for devices such as the Benson Varian.
WARNINGS
Some remote line printer models may not support all of these options. Options not supported are silently ignored.
When is transferring a request that originated on another system, only the option and the file is used. This saves from having to set the
various options multiple times. Specifying unused options does not produce an error.
