[comp.sys.sun] can't remote print large files

khawand@hoss.unl.edu (Nancy Khawand) (08/03/90)

I am having problems printing large files (greater that .5 Mb) remotely
from one SPARC to another SPARC (small files go fine).  The printcap
entries are as follows:

   (source)

test|TEST|Variable Test Printer:\
		:lp=/dev/null:\
		:sd=/var/spool/lpd/test:\
        	:rm=wsec-lpr.unl.edu:\
        	:rp=test:\
		:sh=:\
		:mx#0:\
		:lf=/var/log/lplog:

   (destination)

	test|TEST| Variable Test Printer:\
		:lp=/dev/null:\
		:sd=/usr2/spool/lpd/test:\
		:of=/usr2/spool/lpd/test/of:\
		:sh=:\
		:mx#0:\
		:lf=/var/log/lplog:

When I do do an lpq on the source, the response back is:

	queuing is enabled
	printing is enabled
	1 entry in spool area
	no space on remote; waiting for queue to drain

However, there is pleanty of space left on the disk & I can print the file
directly on the destination just not remotely.  Does anybody have any
suggestions for me to try?
