Hi folks - one of my users receives this error message frequently which
I'm able to clear up by restarting lpd:

----

Nothing wrong with the printer and other users with the same /etc/printcap
are able to print to the printer just fine.  I can ping the printer
"spghp1" as well from this user's host ("unruhlaptop").

Any ideas why this would happen on a regular basis after the machine is up
for 24 hours or so?

Thanks in advance for any insight.
