I have installed millions of NDPS printers, but never have struggled as much as I have with a certain kind of Canon Printer/Copier in a NW 6 environment.
It is an iR3320i, and LPD is enabled (I can see this ifno from the Web Interface page on the printer). I have used both Novell Gateway (my preferred method) and the Canon gateway and can't get the printer agent to communicate with the printer. When using the Novell gateway, I get console errors "Error: Port handler failed LPR begin job initialization.". I have tried configuring it with 'PRINT' and 'PASSTHROUGH' and they both result in the same error.
Has anyone dealt with this and how did you get around it? This is a NW6SP4 server.
Thanks.
