remote printing from HP Unix system

I have a user using an HP Unix system, trying to print remotely
either using lp or lpr to a Sun system.  The print jobs get lost
in the bit bucket.  The lpstat command on the HP shows the jobs
in the queue, but then they disappear.  They never show up on the
Sun system.

The HP system is something I don't usually deal with, hence I'm not
sure what to check.  Is there something like "sysadm" or some other
tool I should use to check this?  I see there isn't a printcap file
either.

Thanks in advance for any advice on this.

Bill
