Default smit freezes while attempting to add remote print queue

AIX 4.3.3

I go into smit

choose "Print Spooling"

choose "Add a Print Queue"

I'm given a choice between "user-defined" and "remote" - I choose
remote.

It shows a screen that reads "Add a Remore Print Queue" at the top and
the usual.....

Type or select values in entry fields.
Press Enter AFTER making all desired changes.

[Entry Fields]

and the usual stuff at the bottom of the screen

BUT, there are no fields to enter - the cursor just hangs out at the
upper right of the screen.

qdaemon, writesrv, and lpd are all active - what could be the problem?

When I try this on other AIX servers, I get prompted for the "Type of
Remote Printing", and can choose "standard processing" and I get all
the fields I normally expect.

Thanks in advance
