| Here is my problem.  I have a client with SCO Unix and Filepro 4.5.8.
| In January we replaced all of their terminals with pc's.  All of the
| printers that were in the network were put on print servers because
| when we replaced the terminals they had a physical device that acted
| like a print server or port.  Everything has worked fine, other than
| the normal glitchy things that come up in a major change over.  We
| do have one odd problem however.  There are multiple Filepro files
| that exchange information back and forth.  There is one file that the
| customer does a hardcopy of the screen to place it in the file for the
| customer.  This particular hardcopy does not print.  It goes to the
| spooler but it does not print.  Other files will spool out and then
| print, even if there are spooled hardcopies from the one that will
| not print.  I have run setperms early on, before I realized that the
| hardcopies were making it to the spooler.  Any help would be greatly
| appreciated.

Please don't post a paragraph as an entire run-on line with no CR or LF.
I've reformatted it.

Have you run 'lpstat -t'?
