Any ideas on this...i remember running into this problem before, but I
don't know if there was ever any resolution.

>Hi - I've just installed Windows LPR Spooler and am having some problems:
>Although I can print once successfully to an Athena printer, after the first
>print job when a second job is sent out immediately (within a couple of
>minutes of the first) I get an error that disables the local queue. When
>I try to check on the error (using "Show last error ...") I get the
>following error message: "KWLPR2.DLL error: Requested service not supported
>by server or network exception occurred." Similarly, I get the same error
>message when I try to check on the remote printer status (regardless of
>whether I've cleared the error flag).
>
>It turns out that it if I clear the flag and wait five or so minutes, the
>problem self-corrects, and I can print another job or check on the remote
>printer status. However, after printing the next job, another error will
>occur and the queue will be disabled again for another 5 minutes or so.
>
>Here's my setup:
>
>NT 4.0 with Service Pack 3
>
>LPR Spooler Version 4.2a with queue configured as per instructions on-line at
>http://web.mit.edu/helpdesk/LPRSpool/lprNT.html
>
>Printer set up with Apple LaserWriter v23.0 with datatype RAW
>Postscript Options set to no job control code; no CRTL-D before or after
>each job

>Many thanks in advance for your help,
