Hi

I am having a problem while printing two documents simultaneously.
i am printing the postscript document from the command line like lpr
filename.ps
The problem is, after invoking the first request, the printer prints
the document but the data button in the printer is always blinking and
the printer display shows "data received". In this scenario, when i
try to invoke the second document print request, it is not printing
the second document.

do we need to add any tag or trailer to indicate the printing
complete?

You probably need a Ctrl-D character to indicate end of print-data.

i am using the HP LaserJetP3005x printer.

More relevant would be the operating system and how the printer is
configured in the operating system. The "lpr" command you mentioned
exists on several versions of MS Windows and Unix-like operating systems.

thanks for your reply...
i am having a java application that will generate the postscript file.
My application is running in linux platform. From the shell prompt, i
am invoking the lpr print request.

hi,
i tried printing the postscript document with cntrl-D. Still i am
having the same problem. can anyone help me out please?
example

%!PS-Adobe-3.0
%%Page: 1 1
/Helvetica findfont 12 scalefont setfont
100 100 moveto (This is the paragraph that goes on page 1.) show
