Try this one:
Code:
awk 'NR==FNR{arr[$3]=$0; next}
$3 in arr {delete arr[$3]; next} {print}
END{for( i in arr ){print arr[i]}}
' sun5-printers.txt sun8-printers.txt > diffs.txt

Thanks franklin52,

I tried, the AWK as you suggested, BUT
now its ignoring the duplicates, as per example i posted.
Code:
device for 0601jc1: lpd://172.25.53.33:515
device for 0601jc1: lpd://172.25.9.104:515

herewith is the output I am now receiving
Code:
more diffs.txt
device for 0606ge1: lpd://172.28.9.29:515
device for 5001a44: lpd://172.25.6.31:515
device for device: ///dev/null
device for 5001a55: lpd://172.25.6.31:515

Here some lines from the text files:
this is the local server:
Code:
tail -20 sun5-printers.txt
device for 5001jnl: lpd://172.25.12.27:515
device for 5001pr1: lpd://172.25.6.28:515
device for 5001prg: lpd://172.25.6.27:515
device for 5001x01: lpd://172.25.12.160:515
device for 5001x02: lpd://172.25.12.160:515
device for 5601ge1: lpd://172.25.12.32:515
device for 6101a01: lpd://172.25.26.26:515
device for device: ///dev/null

this is the remote server
Code:
device for 5001hp1: socket://172.25.11.213:9100
device for 5001jnl: lpd://172.25.12.27:515
device for 5001pr1: lpd://172.25.6.28:515
device for 5001prg: lpd://172.25.6.27:515
device for 5001x01: lpd://172.25.12.160:515
device for 5001x02: lpd://172.25.12.160:515
device for 5601ge1: lpd://172.25.12.32:515
device for 6101a01: lpd://172.25.26.26:515

NOTE* printers exists on both servers, but sometimes Ip addresses may change on the remote server that have to be resynced onto the local server

Code:
more diffs.txt
device for 0606ge1: lpd://172.28.9.29:515
device for 5001a44: lpd://172.25.6.31:515
device for device: ///dev/null
device for 5001a55: lpd://172.25.6.31:515

OK, maybe I wasn't clear enough. An example:

Output 1:
Code:
device for : AA
device for : BB
device for : CC
device for : 11
device for : DD

Output 2:
Code:
device for : AA
device for : BB
device for : 22
device for : DD
device for : CC

Output Diff:
Code:
device for : 11 < -- not in Output 2
device for : 22 < -- not in Output 1
