Symptoms: Print jobs restart or queue goes down.

If the queue is set up for standard processing (not local filtering),
add -T50 flag to rembak to the queue device stanza for the queue
in /etc/qconfig

backend = /usr/lib/lpd/rembak -T50

If the queue was set up for local filtering edit the file
/usr/lib/lpd/pio/etc/piorlfb and change the line;

typeset piorlfb_rbflags=’’’’

to

typeset priorlfb_rbflags=”-T50”

2.

Open an FTP session with the Ethernet Interface.

Syntax:

Log in as root.
