Okay, as I haven't seen the accompanying documentation until now, one remark: | Archive should ignore the number of lines, which are set in its | printer_dat (usually called "arch_dat" [...] and | Unfortunately it was not possible to change this for Archive alone, | as there is just one routine in XChange, which reads the | printer_dat. So, this change affects all three above mentioned | programs. This is not true. If Archive wants to print something, it looks for an archv_dat (not arch_dat) file to do it. If that is not found, it looks for an xchange_dat (not printer_dat) file. Same is true for Quill (quil_dat) and Abacus (abba_dat). So there is no need for this feature to be "archive only", because the possibility for different drivers is already inbuilt into XChange. Just do an archv_dat file with 0 lines and for the other applications an xchange_dat file with a sensible line number. This was one of Erling's changes and is described in his readme_doc.
