A couple of releases ago I added some things so you
could configure this however you wanted:
## pjl_console - printer supports PJL console setting
pjl_console
## Set ready_msg to a string that gets expanded to the
## values you want - \%s{n} is user name
pjl_ready_msg = \%s{n} \%s{J}:\%s{P}
e# maximum number of characters on the console display for messages
pjl_display_size= 20
Enjoy!
