PROBLEM: (80620) (PATCH ID: OSF445-072) ******** This patch fixes a printing problem where lpd reads any data from the printer that has not been read, for local and remote connections. The read-backs for remote connections cause an additional 2 second timeout which may cause a job-submit failure on the job-number wrap-around. This patch fixes the problem by performing the read-backs for local connections only. PROBLEM: (78515, 80638, 80639, 80877) (PATCH ID: OSF445-082) ******** This patch fixes the following four printing problems: - A user is unable to delete a print job from a remote system with a hostname greater than 32 characters because the hostname was truncated. - When a TCP/IP connection fails, the retry algorithm would take longer to print jobs due to a long retry interval. - A timing hole during lpd last-job completion and shutdown needed to be closed. - It was not possible to print to the lpd queue using Windows 2000. PROBLEM: (76329, 76559) (PATCH ID: OSF445-115) ******** This patch corrects a problem in which, under certain conditions, unnecessary error messages are written to the lpr.log file. PROBLEM: (82203, 81354, 85602) (PATCH ID: OSF445-136) ******** This fix introduces the "JJ" /etc/printcap parameter, which allows the user to choose either one tcp/ip connection for all jobs in the print queue (JJ=1), or a tcp/ip connection for each job in the print queue (JJ=0). It also closes a timing hole that existed when lpd was shutting down. This patch fixes a problem in which lpd hangs when printing to advanced server queues (using /dev/null).
