| The output of lpq is sure interesting!

Turn off print spooling on the Win machine. I forget exactly the proce
dure for this on Win3.1, it has been to long.  It thinks it is printing
to a local printer and is sending the data in chunks to the printer,
which is fine for a directly connected printer.  The Win machine does
not need to spool, that is what lpr is for.
