NBSpool Output Commands
3-47
If you are moving spool files via LPR/LPD, the destination can be followed by an option string that
will be sent to the remote system. The option string must be in the following format:
“dest -option1 [ -option2[...]]”
For example:
lj -olandscape -tHello.
To alter the printing characteristics of a spool file destined for a NetWare printer, the
PRINTER
parameter can be used. As with the
PRINT
command, various control strings can be specified, as
well as paging control. Turn to the “Running PRINTDEF” section in this chapter for more
information.
On some slow network links, it is possible that a
MOVE
command will continually encounter errors.
These errors can be reduced by adjusting the size of the spool file transfer packets. By setting the
JCW
SPOOLPACKET
to
1024
or any multiple of
1024
up to
8192
, these errors can be eliminated. Set
this JCW before entering NBSpool.
