- Perhaps the line is flaky and auto-retrain is going on. Happens for me when
- our washing machine is running. (sometimes drops it too)

- Hi Blake,
-
- In your note to me from last December you mentioned that nlpd got the printer
- subcommand; did it ever go back to the "waiting for connection" state? I only
- have record of one message from you.
-
- I wrote nlpd and tested it, along with WSGopher, at WinSockathon III last
- summer with nearly every known stack; both failed with NT and W4W, and worked
- with every other one. I haven't had any success getting any support from
- Microsoft; I considered buying the product just so I *could* get support, but
- never got around to it.
-
- If you have any additional info, or hear of any success stories, I'd
- appreciate you passing it along to me so perhaps I can help someone else.
-
- Best regards,
- Dave
