LPR (the printer client) is historically defined to use one of ports 721-731. If you have more than 11 simultaneous LPRs going on a single host, then some will have to wait for a local port to become available. While I guess some LPDs (printer servers) might still insist that the LPR client actually originate on one of those ports, none of the LPDs we run here seem to care. So... ... a long time ago we told VPS to use a wider range of ports for its LPR clients (the TCPLPORT parameter in the printer definition). Perhaps your EPS product has an equivalent tweak? -- David Andrews A. Duda and Sons, Inc.
