Spooler
parameters.
Spooler parameters (optional) are separated by spaces. They are used for
scheduling print jobs and are as follows:
- The form names that identify the paper to be used,
for example, FORM=A4,A5,ENV. The form names are optional; but if they are
provided, the spooler is able to hold off printing the jobs until the required
form is installed in the printer. If the form name is not provided, the
spooler attempts to print the job. The printer driver recognizes that there
is a forms problem and displays a FORMS MISMATCH message box.
- Priority of the print job, for example, PRTY=60.
The priority is specified as an integer in the range 1 through 99; 99 is
the highest. The default priority value is 50. The application can use the
spooler priority parameter to prioritize its own jobs; however, it is not
good practice for an application always to use priority 99 in an attempt
to get its jobs printed first.
