I note that you are using lpr -s (don't copy before printing).
Per the man pages:
-s Prints from the files specified on the command line rather than trying to
copy them (so large files can be printed). This means the data files should
not
be modified or removed until they have been printed. Note that this flag
only
works on the local host (files sent to remote printer hosts are copied
anyway),
and only with named data files.
Thus, your file is being copied anyway. Do you have sufficient space on the
local box to do the copy?

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?
