Network printer problem

Hi all,

I recently 'inherited' adminship of a tiny network of Sun workstations -
three
SPARCstation 20 running under Solaris 2.x and one Ultra 10 creator 3D
running under Solaris 8. We have a network printer (Lexmark Optra) hooked
up to one of the SPARCstations which used to be accessible from the Ultra
without problems. This no longer is possible, the queue on the Ultra goes to
'reject' as soon as I try to do anything with it - flushing it, resetting,
whatever. I
tried out the troubleshooting procedures outlined in the manuals but didn't
succeed in getting the printer going again. I then tried to delete the
printer
using admintool and install an HP laser locally but got 'get printer failed'
errors
on both operations.
What can I do to pinpoint and solve the problem behind this behaviour?
Thanks for your help,

                 Bernhard Spuida
