I sent out a message a week or so ago about a problem I had in getting
my system to spool (and print) files. Well, I'm not sure what the
problem was, because it went away by itself! :-) But now each time
I print a file, I get the following two mail messages (because I have
it configured to send me errors via mail).
(the system name is 'unixland' and the printer is 'epson'.

Subject: Status of lp request epson-45

Subject: Problem with printer epson
The printer epson has stopped printing for the reason given below.
Fix the problem and bring the printer back on line
to resume printing.
The reason(s) it stopped (multiple reasons indicate repeated attempts):
+ /usr/spool/lp/bin/lp.cat 0
-------
The files do, I believe print to completion (I haven't looked too closely
yet, but I think they finish).
Anyone else seen anything like this?
Thanks,
bill
