include a line in the printcap 

	:send_data_first true

This fixed a very similiar problem for us.

Subject:	LPRng: lost print jobs

It seems that print jobs are being lost when multiple jobs are sent.
If I
send multiple files to this queue only the first two or 
      

three will be
    

forwarded to the printer.  If I send one file then check status with
"lpc
lpq i2316hp2-u@lp-gw2" and then send another and continue 
      

this process
    

no
jobs are lost.  When the job makes it to the i2316hp2-u@lp-gw2 queue
it does
always get forwarded properly. 

I have five queues exhibiting this behavior all setup the same way.
This is
the printcap for one of them.  I am using version 3.8.13.

Printer: i2316hp2-u@lp-gw2
i2316hp2-u
 :filter=/export/local/ifhp/libexec/filters/ifhp
 :ifhp=model=ps
 :[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 :max_log_file_size#5000
 :max_status_size#5000
 :mc=3
 :mx=50000
 :sd=/var/spool/lpd/%P
 :sh

As can be seen, this is a bounce queue with filtering.  
      

Jobs are sent
    

to a
queue on a Win2k box and then onto the printer.

Any ideas?

thanks,
dean
