lpd issue after pk3 to pk6 update.

We have an ES40 running Tru64 v 5.1a. We were running patch kit 3 with no other patches. We had to install patch kit 6 and the new hardware delivery-7 to support some new hardware we recently purchased. We used the patch kit version on the new hardware delivery-7 CD. Some large print jobs are restarting in the middle of printing. This is not happening all of the time, just once in a while. Since the updates, we are getting the following kinds of messages in the lpr.log:

Aug 19 08:41:41 mega1 lpd[89390]: ERROR -- read_all_chars: read() failed, error: Connection reset by peer
Aug 19 08:41:41 mega1 lpd[89390]: WARNING -- sendfile: no response -- return REPRINT
