Re: unable to delete printqueue via hppi ?

Try deleting it with "lpadmin -xsplj014".
It is also disabled. There many things that could be happening here, it might be a remote spooler and not a network (hppi) one. Or the printer itself has been removed. Or the splj014 spooler is not in a consistent state, meaning that one or more of its associated files and directories in /etc/lp or /var/spool/lp may be missing. Check and compare with the other spoolers.
