When the printer is configured on a Solaris 7 system, it prints from
both solaris 7 and solaris 8 systems.
When the printer is configured on a Solaris 8 system, it will not print
from any solaris 7 or solaris 8 machines. lpstat -t on the client
machine responds with the mesage
server printsrv not responding
So somehow the job is not being shipped from the client machine to
the print server.
The system software on the print server was installed, not upgraded.
Thanks.
