We seem to be having problems with lp.  When our systems crashs, almost without
fail lp has been running.  Whether there are 1 or 20 jobs queued, it just
randomly hangs the system.  Has anyone else experienced this problem?

We are currently running Microport V/386.  The one peculiarity about this
situation is that it only happens when we are printing on a serial port, 
never on the parallel port.  

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  My users are not at all happy
about this situation!

Thanks!
