Selecting Spooling Options
Crown technology allows QMS Crown printers to accept data simulta-
neously over all available interface ports. The Administration/Commu-
nications/
xxxxxxxx NIC/CrownNet/Common/Spooling menu (where
xxxxxxxx
is either Resident or Optional) allows you to control how
print jobs accepted over the CrownNet interface are spooled and sent
to the printer.

Common/Spooling
Choices On—Print jobs are accepted, spooled to memory, and sent to
the printer controller for printing as soon as it will accept
them. Therefore, several print jobs may be considered
active at one time.
On Idle—Print jobs are spooled to memory when the printer is
idle (all pages of the previous print job have been printed).
Therefore, only a single print job is active at one time.
On Input Idle—Print jobs are accepted and spooled to
memory when all pages from the previous job have been
input. This means that the printer controller has finished
compiling the previous print job, but not all of the pages
have necessarily been printed.
Default On Input Idle
Effectivity Changes take effect as soon as you put the printer back on
line.
Notes Choosing either On or On Input Idle automatically sets the
Mode option in the Administration/Communications/
xxxxxxxx NIC/CrownNet/TCPIP/Accnting/Revchan menu
(where
xxxxxxxx is either Resident or Optional) to Disabled,
thus disabling TCP/IP accounting.
