    I am attempting to use lpr on a file of approx 300 MB

    My syntax is lpr -s -Pmyqueue myfile

    I have set up a AIX remote queue pointing to a queue on NT.

    The problem is that when I run the command the queue shows SENDING for a
    while and then goes down.

    This also occurs if the remote queue is an AIX queue on another box.

    Sending small files is not a problem

    Any ideas?
