I'm having problems with a remote lpr printer. The first print job gets
stuck in the queue. The second job initiates the print-out of the first
job. But only the first page. And this goes on. The printer works fine
from a Windows box through Samba.
Any ideas? If not I'll turn to cups as suggested by Paul Heinlein.
Thanks!

Here are the printcaps:
Print server (glide):
epson:\
:ml#0:\
:mx#0:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/epson:\
:af=/var/spool/lpd/epson/epson.acct:\
:sh:\
:lp=/dev/lp0:\
:lpd_bounce=true:\
:if=/usr/share/printconf/util/mf_wrapper:
Workstation (halo):
epson_glide:\
:ml#0:\
:mx#0:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/epson_glide:\
:af=/var/spool/lpd/epson_glide/epson_glide.acct:\
:sh:\
:rm=glide:\
:rp=epson:\
:lpd_bounce=true:\
:if=/usr/share/printconf/util/mf_wrapper:
And this is what plstat returns after sending two jobs:
