Hello to all of you,
I just had the idea to use my OpenBSD box in combination with an old
HP-Laserjet 4* to provide network printing.
oh ... before i forgett it 'S OpenBSD current, from today (but i have the same
problems running 4.9 rel. or stab.).
I have no problems with local printing but when it comes to remote printing
that is what i can read in /var/log/lpd-errs:

i remember having similar problems back in 1998 running FreeBSD, i think a
patch did the job back then, is here someone whoo can tell me more about that?
I didn't find anything about network printing within the FAQ,
