This used to happen whenever I printed from kfm and plp.  I think it
used the lp command or printed it directly to the queue or something
funky.  Netscape always printed fine with lpr.  Try lpr'ing your fstab
or something and see if the same thing occurs.  Anyway you can do an
'lpc up all' and that will start your job printing.
