"Netpr: Cannot open connection to..." Print Services Error Solaris 2.6

(OP)
Can anyone pin-point what this relates to SPECIFICALY. Sun have been dancing around this for days. The full text coming into root mail is :-

Netpr: Cannot open connection to <ps033lj0>exec exit fault

This is a printer to which lp has printed to earlier in the day. Suddenly print services stop. The printer is an HPLJ5Si with loads of memory, and an Extended Systems box attached. The printer/ES box have been rebooted with no success.

Any Clues?
