Hi Andrew,
These print jobs perchance aren't being piped through a postprocessing
filter such as mpage are they?
We had massive problems here with excessive stall times (several hours)
in a lab of 30 PCs with a LPRng machine servicing two HP 4MV's.
We finally tracked it down to a 'bestpath="$bestpath | mpage -2o'
directive in the master filter, which was intended to force all print
jobs to 2-up (orders from above). It did a pretty fine job too, until
more than a few students started printing out several jobs
simultaneously. Then the stalls began. Removing the mpage directive
fixed it.
Good luck,
Greg
