Any print job is going to be temporarily held in the /var directory - first, how much space is on /var ? Another thing to think about is what "backend" is it using - CUPS? LPRNG? - you might need to address the backend driver for that. So, between the actual printer memory, space on /var and the backend driver, you should be able to get the printer to spool as much as you want... -- Sun Jul 6 08:55:00 EST 2003 08:55:00 up 3 days, 22:15, 2 users, load average: 0.37, 0.24, 0.12 ----------------------------------------------------------------- | __ __ |kuhn media australia | | /-oo /| |'-. |http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' |stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | ----------------------------------------------------------------- linux user #:267497 linux machine #:194239 * MDK 9.1 & RH 7.3 Mandrake Linux Kernel 2.4.21-11mdk Cooker for i586 ----------------------------------------------------------------- * This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer * optimist, n.: A proponent of the belief that black is white.
