Hello,
I found that all Sun workstations in this cluster has a printing problem with 
xfig. You can draw pictures here with xfig, but when you try to print from
the printer here (printer name "caes"), got these error messages:

--------
/tmp> UX:lp: ERROR: Destination "caes" is unknown to the
              LP print service.

/tmp> UX:lp: WARNING: Cannot access the file:
                ,.
        TO FIX: Make sure file names are valid.
UX:lp: WARNING: Cannot access the file:
                -dcaes.
        TO FIX: Make sure file names are valid.
UX:lp: WARNING: Cannot access the file:
                -oPS.
        TO FIX: Make sure file names are valid.
UX:lp: ERROR: Can't establish contact with the LP print service.
      TO FIX: Either the LP print service has stopped,
              or all message channels are busy. If the
              problem continues, get help from your
              system administrator.

--------
When I go to other cluster, I can easily print the same file.
Hope you can fix this problem. Thanks.

N.B. the Athena cluster here is located at 9-366, workstations names are
     caes-sun-1 through 7.
