Christina,
I've looked into this... I can't add a NOTE to the problem ticket... it
doesn't let me.
Basically, the error comes out of LPR when a file somehow changes in length
while LPR is sending the job to LPD on the spooling host. This could happen
I suppose if the file is still being written, or some other crazy thing is
going on. I haven't seen this before, so, my opinion is that it is an
isolated case. The user should RECREATE the file and try again.
Darrin
