>it gives error lpstat: execlp failed.

Were there any more details? I.e. file not found? Or some type of resource limitation. I.e. swapspace?

If you had tusc, it would show the real cause.

which HP-UX version?
did u try restarting the spooller.

Compare the permission of of /etc/lp/and /var/spool/lp and important subdirectories under those.. probabaly u may have a permission issue.

check the history and see lp related changes are executed
