Netscape 3.0/Windows '95/Novell 3.12 - p

[Earl Young]

     Our experience with printing from the Internet is that too little 
     memory in the printer is an issue.  We have occassional "hang" 
     situations that freeze the queue.  We have to kill the job by hand and 
     not print that page again.  It does not happen often, but we have 
     noticed that it is confined to the older/low memory HP machine.

I have several workstations printing to a network printer. Other 
applications besides Netscape seem to handle the Windows '95/Novell 3.12 
environment fine, but print jobs from Netscape continually get stuck in the 
print queue. I get a mysterious message telling me that the print queue 
can't be found. I can sometimes "jiggle" the queue, by telling it to work 
offline and then to work online. Other times I restart the workstation and 
the print job, which Windows '95 has saved, will then print. I redirect LPT1 
to the network printer before starting Windows '95.
     
Has anyone out there  experienced similar problems. Any help would be 
appreciated. Thanks.
