It appears that the 'mx=' parameter is ignored in router queues.  For 
example, a router queue with 'mx=5000' in its printcap entry will pass a 
10MB print job to a destination queue.

If the destination queue has 'mx=5000' in its printcap entry, the 10MB 
print job will be removed.

Since I'm interested in using the 'mx=' parameter to avoid having my 
spool partition fill up, I would prefer that the job be terminated by 
the original receiving queue as soon as the maximum number of bytes is 
received.  This also provided better feedback to the client which is 
submitting the job.

Please let me know if I'm missing something.

Thanks,
-Rick
