Greetings, I've seen multiple postings similar to my situation at the Apple forums with no resolution. I'm hoping that broadening my search will elicit some more helpful responses....
I have a 10.3.9 Server with 3 print spools (PAPD, LPD)--pretty vanilla setup, no limits or user restrictions.
At random, my users will all start emailing back to me that they are receiving "Cannot print. Printer unresponsive" errors. At this, I check out the print spools and everything seems fine. No strange log entries, no obvious problems. I simply stop, then restart print service and everything is fine.
But, that's not really fine at all. I can't have spools just go offline (even though they claim to be online) randomly 2 or 3 times daily, requiring a server admin to stop/start print service.
Any ideas, aside from buying a 3rd party print spooler?
