Hi,

I think it is HPDPS software, probably the owner is lp.

DPS use this file /tmp/pdenq.log in debug environment.
This file can get large, so you can trim it via scheduled cron job.

Thanks, folks. I knew it was lp, but I wasn't sure why our application was generating these messages. Then I discovered that it was repeatedly kicking off 'lp -d null' commands. With no null printer the messages came often and swiftly.
The 'null' came from a database table.
