- Microsoft LAN Manager, version 2.2c

SYMPTOMS
========
A print job sent by a LAN Manager 2.2c client to a Windows NT print queue may be
cut into two.
CAUSE
=====
A Network Monitor trace shows the "net print" command issues a "close spool
file" with the print job's File ID. This results in a portion of the job that
has already been spooled being printed then the rest of the job starts as a new
print job.
RESOLUTION
==========
To check print queue status, use Print Manager instead of "net print" on LAN
Manager client computers.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in LAN Manager 2.2c.
MORE INFORMATION
================
After the client sends a print job and during the job spooling process, if you
check the print queue status using the "net print" command from an MS- DOS
command prompt, you will see multiple entries for one LAN Manager print job in
the print queue. You must be using Print Manager on a computer running Windows
NT to see these multiple entries.
