    I already set the timeout to 60 minutes when I created the AIX queue.
    It doesn't seem to help, unfortunately

    Hi John,

    You have to increase the time out on the queue. Add "-T500" to the end of
    the rembak line for the specified queue in the /etc/qconfig. You will have
    to stop and restart qdaemon to take effect.

    Subject: lpr problems

    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?
