[HPADM] RE: Printing problems moving from hp-ux 10.20 to 11.23



Make sure your actually checking the /etc/hosts file first (you might
not). The order would be determined in /etc/nsswitch.conf.



What spooler are you using?

Subject: [HPADM] Printing problems moving from hp-ux 10.20 to 11.23



We were previously running HP-UX 10.20 on a K580. Last week we moved to
a rx4640 running HP-UX 11.23. Everything is going great except the
printing. When users submit print jobs, the first page prints, then
there is a 2-3 second pause, then the next page prints, etc. The print
queues were not ported over, they were newly created. I searched the
archive for a solution earlier and there was some hint of DNS being the
root cause, but the printer hostnames (all using hp jetdirect cards) are
defined in the /etc/hosts file. Any suggestions are welcomed. I'll
summarize when resolved. TIA.
