I'm trying to use LPR Spooler 4.2a on WinNT4(service pack 3). 

I have installed it following the directions at http://web.mit.edu/helpdesk/lprspool/win95.html

When I print from any program, or try to show remote printer status from within LPR spooler, I frequently get the following type of error:

"Error when querying remote printer status"
"KWLPR2.DLL error: Requested service not supported by server, or network exception occured"

After this, the queue is disabled. If I try to enable the queue over and over again, the error will continue to occur many times but eventually it will go through and print ok.

Thank you for any help.
