NetWare DOS Requester Option
NOTE: While increasing the speed in some of your printing output, this parameter also
increases memory use.
PRINT HEADER=number
Sets the size of the buffer (in bytes) that holds the information used to
initialize a printer for each print job.
If you send print jobs with many instructions in the header (such as
initializing a printer for an emulated mode or changing defaults, font
selections, page length, or orientation) and the printer is not delivering all
the requested attributes, increase the print header size.
PRINT TAIL=number
Sets the size of the buffer (in bytes) that holds the information used to reset
the printer after a print job.
If your printer is not clearing out the buffer completely or resetting after
each print job, increase the print tail size.
Modules PRINT.VLM
