I am pretty sure that the latest version
(ifhp-3.4.1) has this particular problem solved,
as other people reported it.
Please try it. If it does NOT work, please contact
me by phone or send email to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
who will unlock my cage and let me out to work on this
a bit.

>
> Since I've upgraded from LPRng 3.6.15 with ifhp 3.3.13 to LPRng 3.6.25
> with ifhp 3.4.1, a new problem occurs with our LaserJet 5M printer
> (lp=foo%9100): Occasionally a second printing attempt is started
> even though the first one worked perfectly well. I've seen
> this under 'special conditions' (i.e. the printer waiting for paper),
> but a couple of times I've seen the PS panner page being printed
> twice for no apparent reaons. This never happened with the old
> versions.
>
> Now I've looked in the 'status' file and found 'no response from printer'
> errors. The 'lpq -L' extract below is from one job that was started
> at 14:56 and successfully completed at 15:07 after the printer had
> to wait for paper from 15:02 to 15:04. Just one minute after
> the first 'ALERT OPERATOR' status code, there's a 'no response ...'
> error message. Later when the job has completed, a second attempt
> is started, which is delayed when the paper is empty again (15:09); it
> isn't refilled until 15:55, but this time no 'no respone ...' error
> message occurs and everthing works well. Finally we've cancelled
> the job because we noticed that this was just a duplicate of someting
> that we had already printed.
