Hi group
We are trying to get our remote printers set up using HP jetdirects with our 
new digital Alpha. The message we are receiving after we send out a print 
job is "waiting for Remote2 to come up"
We have set up the directories as required and gave it our ip addresses and 
even pinged the jetdirect. When we do an     lpc   status   we get the 
following
               printer is on remote host Remote2 with name hpjetex1
               queuing is enabled
               printing is enabled
               3 entries in the spool area
               Thurs May 30   : waiting for Remote2 to come up.
but still no print job sent to the HP540
We have used the following commands to print
          lpr   -PTRANSCRIPTS     .profile
          lp    -dTRANSCRIPTS     .profile
We have no problems with getting our serial printer to print, which is 
connected to the serial port or even getting a print job sent to our 1 
Digital Rapid Print Server. So we know that it will print.
Any suggestions on where else to look or what to do next? Any and all 
suggestions are appreciated.
Thank you.
