Can't print to one Lexmark Marknet XLE 202 across router

 ENV:
        AIX 4.1.5
        7013-J30
        Lexmark MarkNet XLE model 202

 PROBLEM:
        We have this setup:

AIX(en0=100.100.1.11)-----------(100.100.1.10)router(100.100.0.13)
                                                        |
                                                        |-100.100.0.60
                                                        |
                                                        |-100.100.0.75

        I can print and ping 100.100.0.60 from AIX across the router
        but cannot ping 100.100.0.75.  Other hosts on the 100.100.0
        network can ping 100.100.0.75.

*ACTION TAKEN:
        Tried traceroute - packets get to the router, but no reply.
        netstat -rn shows routing tables are completely correct.

        Config pages of both the two Lexmark devices show the correct
        default gateway (100.100.0.13)

        Tried using Lexmark's lslanprt utility which can find the
        working Lexmark box by MAC address, but not the failing one.
                You found that the arp cache on the router between the RS/6000
        and the MarkNet had an entry for the Lexmark XLE boxes'
        IP address which was holding things up.  Flushing the
        arp cache on the routers got the printers functioning again.
