hello,
I just installed LPRng and I think it is great, however I am not sure
how to get past this 52 request limit...
I really need to .. for a cron job that I have to print all the labels
that sit in a directory each night...
it is a simple script

cd /tmp/labels
lp -dlabel2 lab*

of course this fails with...
Fatal error - Sorry, can only print 52 files at a time, split job up

can I get around this limitation??
I am using lpf
from the HOWTO...

Each data file for a print job has a name with the format
dfXnnnh4.private. The df is used to indicate that the file is a data
file, and the remainder is a unique name for the file in the job. The X
part of the name must be an upper or lower case letter, setting a limit
of 52 different files in a single print job.

I am not sure I 100% understand this blurb.
I cannot seem to locate what the options are for the "X" part and if a
higher limit can be set with this option..

thanks in advance for any insight into this matter.
Robert
