I am having a problem with one HP printer. It looks like everything is set up correctly in printcap. However, when I
go to print to it the entry hangs in the queue. Is there anywhere to find network errors? The only thing that shows is
a "timeout". The entry in bootptab on the name server is (xxx substituted):
prchprnt:\
:ht=ether:\
:ha=00.60.b0.71.75.0b:\
:sm=255.255.255.0:\
:lg=xxx.xxx.132.5:\
:gw=xxx.xxx.134.237:\
:hn:\
:T144="hpnp/prchprnt.cfg":\
:ip=xxx.xxx.134.104:\
:vm=rfc1048:
When I telnet into the printer the configuration displays as follows:
===JetDirect Telnet Configuration===

Any ideas where to look?
