I am having trouble spooling to two different LaserWriters in the same zone.

my /etc/printcap file is:

lp|LaserWriter|NTS LaserWriter II NT:\
     :lp=/dev/null0:\
     :sd=/var/spool/lpd:\
     :pl#72:pw#86:\
     :lf=/var/adm/lpd-errs:\
     :if=/usr/local/cap/pspr:\
     :of=/usr/local/cap/papof:
#
lp2|LaserWriter2|NeST LaserWriter II NT:\
     :lp=/dev/null1:\
     :sd=/var/spool/lpd2:\
     :pl#72:pw#86:\
     :lf=/var/adm/lpd-errs2:\
     :if=/usr/local/cap/pspr:\
     :of=/usr/local/cap/papof:

and my /etc/cap.printers file is:

lp=NTS LaserWriter II NT :LaserWriter@NTS-LocalTalk
lp2=NeST LaserWriter II NT :LaserWriter@NTS-LocalTalk

lpc>status shows both daemons active and printing, however output only
goes to the first LaserWriter.

Thoughts - I'm stumped.

thanks for the help - /mde/
