3. Specifies that documents should be spooled (stored in a
special print file) before being printed. The document is then
printed in the background, allowing your application program
to become available more quickly. Options follow:
This specifies that printing should not start until the last page
has been spooled. If your application program needs a lot of
time for further computation in the middle of printing, causing
the print job to pause for more than a short period, the printer
could prematurely assume that the document has finished.
Selecting this option would prevent that situation, but printing
will be completed a little later, as the start is delayed.
This is the opposite choice to the one above. Printing starts as
soon as possible after the document begins spooling.
4. This specifies that the document should not be spooled, but
printed directly. Your application will not normally be ready for
further use until the print job is complete. This requires less
disk space on your computer, since there is no spool file.
5. Directs the spooler to check the document setup and match it
to the printer setup before sending the document to print. If a
mismatch is detected, the document is held in the print queue
and does not print until the printer setup is changed and the
document restarted from the print queue. Mismatched
documents in the queue will not prevent correctly matched
documents from printing.
6.
Specifies that the spooler should favour documents which
have completed spooling when deciding which document to
print next, even if completed documents are lower priority
than documents which are still spooling. If no documents have
completed spooling, the spooler will favour larger spooling
documents over shorter ones. Use this option if you want to
maximise printer efficiency. When this option is disabled the
spooler chooses documents based only on their priority
settings.
7. Specifies that the spooler should not delete documents after
they are completed. This allows documents to be re submitted
to the printer from the spooler instead of printing again from
