Network printing to a HP Laserjet

Dear Managers

I have a Digital Unix box running 3.2c and have configured a remote printer
as follows:-

/etc/printcap

lp|lp0|0|laser:\
        :lf=/usr/adm/lperr:\
        :lp=:\
        :mx#0:\
        :rm=hplaser4:\
        :rp=text:\
        :sd=/usr/spool/lpd:

If multiple jobs are sent to the HP laserjet, jobs are often lost. It seems
the Unix spooler is passing every job to the printer even when the printer
can not handle any more jobs.
If anyone has some ideas they would be much appreciated.

Warren
