We are trying to set up lwsrv so that we can print from Macs to a
laser-writter II attatched to a Sun 3. Occasionaly it works, more
often we get a cryptic mail message back from the printer deamon to
the effect that "your job could not be printed" and the printer log
file on the Sun says something like:  

Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored

I have not been able to reproduce the circumstances that cause it to
change from working to broken or vice-versa. In fact it seems to
change even when nothing relevant has been done to the system!

Any ideas what I might try would be much appreciated, as our only
other printing option involves climbing a lot of stairs....
