Sorry to waste the bandwidth, but I finally began to wonder if my
subject somehow hit some sort of filtering. One printer is serial
on an Axis print server and the other is parallel on a JetDirect
print server. My original message:

This behavior began since we migrated from a 927LX 6.5 PP2 to
an A400/110 7.0 Express 1.

We have 2 network printers in the computer room that are only used
to print from the HP 3000. What they've started doing on a sporadic
basis is stop printing at the end of one spoolfile ... usually there are
no more to print at that point ... then when more print files are
available to print, nothing happens. It looks like it should work
Doing a SPOOLER 1006;SHOW indicates that the spooler is up and
running, but idle. The print files do not have a 'D' by them, so they
don't appear to be deferred. The outfence is low enough for the
spool files to print. Trying a startspool just tells me it is already
spooled (which is what I would expect) and a resumespool won't
resume it (which is what I would expect). Then, in experimenting,
I tried doing a SPOOLF;UNDEFER, and that worked!

Any clues?
