    Unhappy Printing from Solaris

    Dear All

    i have problem while printing from Solaris 10 (Unix), The issue here, that it is unix system and in unix system you will have to run a scrip only form TAR file to configure the printer.
    The machine is having PS installed already and some of the file got printed fine, but some other files which is having Tiff attachment is getting stock in the spooler and the machine keep blinking for a hours and nothing get printed...for example if i print a file from 76 pages the machine print 70 pages fine and then the machine stopped printing and printer led keep blinking forever.
    The same file was printed on other products (Xerox, Develop, sharp, canon) and the file printed ok, but our machine just hanged in between.
    I think the issue related to the PS command while printing from Solaris.

    pleaseeee help me out.

    exactly the same, it would print some pages, and then just hang, I suppose the spooler couldn;t cope with the amount data, as UNIX spools far quicker than Windows systems
