Re: [U2] [UD] Accumulate lots of small jobs into one large one

[David Beahm]

Our solution (UD, HP-UX; we had to keep output from numerous subroutines 
together through a printer pool) was to WRITESEQ to a TMP dir-type file 
and EXECUTE "!lp -dQ":FORMQ:" -c -s TMP/":FILEID

Don't know if it was the best way, but it works great and actually makes 
troubleshooting easier.

Best,

Hello all,
We have recently purchased a shiny new fast laser printer to print our
factory paperwork, however the nature of our reports is negating the benef
it
of the fast printer, it takes 4 seconds for the printer to do the first
page, however we send lots of different individual report writer reports,
this means that often the printer is just waiting four seconds between the
end of printing one small report and starting another.  Is there a nice
Unidata based way of accumulating all the jobs into one then sending it?  
Or
perhaps a less nice Unix (HP-UX) way of appending all the print jobs to on
e
file and sending that?
