LAT printer stalls

Hi,

I've got 3 LAT printers configured on a DU V4.0B box (all the same). The
printer is a la424 (or compatible CITOH).
On of the printer, when a lot of jobs are sent to it, stalls. All the
entries are in the print queue, but nothing is printing. I need to
restart the printer in order to get jobs going (lpc restart lp8).

I've also checked the lp8err file, /var/adm/syslog.dated/??/lpr.log file
and the LAT counters (latcp -d -N) and no errors are reported.

Any ideas on how to stop this from hapening?

Thanks,
/jean

If needed here is the printcap:
