I've done it, but don't have any insights to offer, I'm afraid. For my OS
X box (iBook), it was just a question of pointing to the queue on the Linux
box. For my OS 9 box (PMac 6100/66 w/ G3), it was about the same.
The only difference here is that I have real LaserWriters. Yes, the Mac
can print to them directly, but I want the queue management taking place on
the Linux box.

What is LPRng *doing* while it's trying to spool this job? Waiting on a
filter? It sounds like it's not the daemon having the problem, but a
filter, since if you set up a bounce queue things spool immediately.
Just an idea.
