I just received a phone call from a faculty member and it looks like
there is some problem either with those printers or with the printer
server that manages them.  If I do an lpstat on either of them I get
the following result:

athena[399]% lpstat -Pplato
UX:lpstat: ERROR: The LP print service isn't running or can't be
                  reached.
          TO FIX: Your request can't be completely handled
                  without the LP print service. If this
                  problem continues, get help from your
                  system administrator.

Could somebody look into this?

Thanx.
