Enable/Disable FIFO Job Scheduling

5-2
• If FIFO is desired dynamically, all jobs must be submitted
from a single client to a single queue with a release status set
to [Yes]. All other queues must have the release status set to
No.
• If the queue that is set to use FIFO is not currently releasing
jobs to the printer, then the jobs may not appear in the correct
FIFO order. Select [Job Manager] and then select the
Options menu. Select [Redisplay] to view the jobs in correct
FIFO order.
NOTE: Some error conditions within the printer can cause a job
to fault because there is no recovery operation that the operator
can perform. These jobs are dropped out of the sequence,
destroying the original FIFO order. The controller is not designed
to wait for corrective action by an operator for a faulted job
before advancing to the next job which has already been
scheduled and is displaying a 'Waiting for Printer' status.
To enable or disable FIFO job scheduling, perform the following:
1. Open a Terminal Window.
2. Log in as root.
3. At the #, type the following
cd /opt/XRXnps/bin
4.and press <Enter>.
5. Type
./setfifomode
6. and press <Enter>.
7. Respond as appropriate to the following prompts:
'This script is being run as root'
if the user is not logged in as root, the following message will
appear:
'You must be root to run this script!'
The script will exit.
• If FIFO Job Scheduling is not enabled, the following will
appear:
'Currently FIFO Job Scheduling is off'
'Do you wish to enable FIFO Job Scheduling? (y/
n)
