Problem with network printer on Solaris.

Hi All,

We have configured an hp network printer on a Solaris-sparc machine.
We are unable to print any files from this machine.

The following are the other details:
lpstat -p hpnic -l

printer hpnic waiting for auto-retry. available.
exec exit fault
Form mounted:
Content types: postscript
Printer types: unknown
Description: Printer at office
Connection: direct
Interface: /usr/lib/lp/model/netstandard_foomatic
PPD: /usr/lib/lp/model/ppd/system/foomatic/HP/HP-LaserJet-laserjet.ppd.gz
After fault: continue
Users allowed:
(all)
Forms allowed:
(none)
Banner page never printed
Character sets:
(none)
Default pitch:
Default page size:
Default port settings:
Options: dest=10.1.1.2, protocol=bsd

When the print command is issued the output is as folows:
lp -d hpnic testfile
request id is hpnic-195 (1 file(s))

lpstat -o
hpnic-195 testscripts 54 Dec 30 17:59 filtered

Nothing is printed ...

Any directions on how do we go abt this issue...?

Thanks
