smbclient not form feeding

I posted the following message to comp.protocols.smb but I thought that
other debian users may know the solution. Any help is gratefully
appreciated. Cheers, Colin.

[1] smbclient not form feeding?

First of all, I am trying to print from my linux machine to a win95
machine using smbclient. The server is MAIN and there are two shares, D
and HPLIII, where D is the CDROM drive and HPLIII is the printer
(obviously). I can sucessfully do

              "smbclient '\\MAIN\D' -I aa.bb.cc.dd"

and list files, etc. so the connection is fine. However, when I try to use
the printer via

"smbclient '\\MAIN\HPLIII' -I aa.bb.cc.dd -N -P -c 'print test.txt'"

nothing happens until I walk over to the printer and do a manual form
feed. I made sure that I converted test.txt to dos fileformat before hand. 
Any idea how to fix this? 

On a related note, I always need to specify the ip address with the -I
switch or else I get a "ERRNO=111". Is this normal?
