Does the software for prmgr/prsvr on DN3000 under SR10.1
actually work?  I have been having no luck with this.  Here
are the files of interest:

----------------------- //cimon/sys/print/Lindley_Printers --------------------
spool_node = //cimon
prmgr_name = lindley_spool
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------- //cimon/sys/print/io_config ---------------------------
prmgr_site lindley_spool
pritner_name io
description Personal Printer for James Conley
#
printer_ext 0
#
device_driver spinwriter
#
io_device_name /dev/sio1
speed 9600

       (echo " prmgr\c" >/dev/console)
       /sys/hardcopy/prmgr -cfg /sys/print/Lindley_Printers &
 fi
#
# start a print server for each printer connected to this node
 if [ -f /sys/hardcopy/prsvr ]; then
       (echo " prsvr\c" >/dev/console)
       /sys/hardcopy/prsvr /sys/print/io_config &

	More information:  io is a diskless node, cimon is the boot partner.

Symptoms:
