samba - Jul 1998 - Printing Errors

I've been running RedHat 5.0 and Samba flawlessly for over 6 months now.
I had to reboot the server and now I can't seem to print.  When I use
the "Printtool" to send a test text or postscript job to the printer,
I get the following error:

Unable to print to HP4000
Error Message: lpr: connect: no such file or directory
jobs queued, but cannot start daemon

The printer is set up as  a remote lpd queue to the HP Jetdirect card on
an HP 4000, and sharable to Win95 PC's.

Any info or suggestions as to where I can start looking will be greatly
apprciated!!!

Thanks

I am using samba 2.2.5 with cups 1.1.15  Rh 7.3

Still when I am printing form my W2K box some of the data gets left out.  If
I am printing a text document, a spreadsheet, or an email (maybe everything,
that's all I usually print) some letter get left off.  It varies from doc to
doc but not from one print to the next.  If I print an email and all the H
are gone and I reprint that same email the H's will still be gone, but if I
print a spreadsheet maybe the C's or the P's will be missing.  Sometimes
it
is only one letter, sometimes more.  I print directly from the linux box
with the cups test page with no problems.  Below is some of the error log
and my smb.conf file.  If I cannot get this figured out I will have to keep
our netware server just for printing (bad deal).  The windows test page is
OK also.  I haven't seen any missing letters in it.  Maybe file size is
relevant?  This server is not in a domain, just a workgroup.
