Sometimes when I attempt to print something on NIL, it never appears
in the queue. No error message is given, and it takes about the right
length of time. I don't know if my local lpr or the lpd on
E40-PRINT-SERVER-1 is losing it. Lately, this has been happening as
often as 1 in 4 times that I attempt to print. Twice in the last two
days, I've seen it happen where there were other things in the queue
so I know that it wasn't a case of someone misfiling my output.
I know that this is a vague bug report, since I can't reliably
reproduce the problem, but I want to report it to see if anyone else
has noticed similar problems.
