Hello,
One of the networked printers in the library (not a public printer) is
not responding to print commands from athena. This has worked fine
for a year or so & just stopped responding. The printer is directly
attached to a windows 3.1 machine and prints jobs from it OK. Also,
the printer responds when it is PINGed (IP address is 18.51.0.119 -
name is hum01) but entering lpq at the athena prompt returns the
message lpq: hum01: unknown printer.
I don't know the name of the printer server for this printer.
Thanks for any help.
