Managers,
    When using our spool/queue managent software (EasySpooler) to print to a
Minolta DiALTA Di520 laser printer, I get the following errors in
/var/adm/syslog.dated/<date>/lpd.log. Out of 83 printers that this software
manages, this is the only printer that we are having problems with. I am
able to print using lpr without any problems. Any ideas about what is
causing the following errors would be greatly appreciated.
