ENABLE causes LPR to insert the print banner command in the control file of each print job.
DISABLE causes LPR to omit the print banner.
Retry Count
This field determines the number of times LINCS will try to send a print job to an LPD server.
If all retry attempts fail, then the print job will be deleted, and event number 245_61 will be
logged.
Retry Interval
This field specifies the number of seconds LINCS will wait before retrying to send a print job
to an LPD server.
Feature Memory
The Feature Memory (K) field defines the amount of Feature Memory to allocate for each
printer defined in this Network Device Definition. Memory is required to buffer a print job
before it is sent to the LPD server.
This field toggles between a “Disk” option and incrementing values of memory, up to the
amount of memory defined on the Product Description panel. Normally the value of “Disk”
is the desired value for this option. The LPD Server/Printers Drive field must be configured
on the TCP/IP Options panel in order for the “Disk” option to be available. If memory options
are selected, the value should be set to the approximate number of ASCII characters in the
largest print job expected to be processed by a printer in this Network Device Definition.
The total amount of memory required for all LPD printers will be calculated and displayed
for informational purposes on the Feature Memory Allocation panel.
Print Failure Action
This field determines how a failure to send a print job to a LPD printer is to be handled.
Choices are to Delete Print Job (default selection) and to Hold Print Job (recommended).
If the Hold Print Job option is taken, it is possible to attempt the job again after the
problem has been corrected with a utility in Central Control Mode. You may also choose
to delete the print job from the same utility. If you select to Delete Print Job, the job will
be deleted and no further notification to the host or user initiating the print will be given.
