SYMPTOMS
========
When a Hewlett-Packard (HP) JetDirect EX Plus 3 (multiple port) interface card
is incorrectly configured, all print jobs print to the first printer.
CAUSE
=====
This can be caused by having uppercase letters or spaces in the port name. These
cards are case-sensitive. If DLC protocol is used instead of TCP/IP, this will
also cause all jobs to go to only one printer.
RESOLUTION
==========
To resolve this problem, use one of the following methods:
- Configure the printers to use TCP/IP instead of DLC.
- When adding a Hewlett-Packard Network Port, in the Name box use only
lowercase letters with no spaces. For example, use raw1, raw2, and raw3 or
text1, text2, and text3.
NOTE: The port names must have the sequential numeric value of 1, 2, 3 after
the lowercase name in order for all three ports to be used.
