What
about the queue CITO on the problem system? Does that queue, which also appears
to be HP JetDirect type, work?
If
CITO works, then check Print Queue characteristics. Perhaps there is something
different with the queue properties.

Hi All,
This is really weird problem. I have configured remote printer on 7 AIX
servers. This printer works on 5 systems but does not on two production
systems where I want this to work. I can ping and telnet to printer port
from all the systems so that drops network issues - No network issues.
Printer Working on this
system: BACSBOX is the Queue name.
