Re: printer queue hung
Check the print log files
/var/adm/lp/log
Should see some indication in there.

Re: printer queue hung
If so, check to see if the printer queue on the remote server is enabled.

Re: printer queue hung
Is there a different print queue for each remotely attached server?

Re: printer queue hung
Are you using the same prt_name going to the same prt_queue on the same remote server?
What is different between this remote printer on hostA and the configuration of the remote printer on this host you are working on now?

Re: printer queue hung
Welcome back..
Where is your "remote printer" hosted and what is its OS? Is it hosted on a Windows (NT/2K/2003/Longhorn Beta) machine or another *NIX/Linux machine?
If on Windows:
Make sure the Windows admin has enabled UNIX Printing Services (aka LPD/LPR services) on the windows server it is hosted on.
If on a *NIX/Linux:
Make sure your HP-UX boxen is authorised to use (rlpdaemon) printing services on the "print server".
Hope this helps good sir.

Re: printer queue hung
Note however that this scheme is plagued with problems as we hav efound out. The best printing scheme is to always have UNIX print direct to the printer using the printer's native print/communications software as follows:
HPs -- JetDirect
QMS - CrownNet Software
Xerox - XPADMIN
LexMark - LexPrint Software
All these major printer vendors have a version fot HP-UX or any other *NIX and most Linux distros...
Hope this helps sir.
