Hay NG!
I installed CUPS on my linux-server (suse). I want to print on windows-workstations which have printers connected on the parallel port. if the workstation is up - printing does well ! but if the workstation is down and a printing job is sent to this workstation the job in the queue is lost after 5 minutes. I know there is the timeoutvalue in the cupsd.conf of 300 seconds (=5 minutes ;-) ) . but now my question: is it possible that the jobs will not be deleted for a few days (weekend) and on monday if the workstation is up it will get printed! i think it is possible to set the timeoutvalue to more than 300 seconds but what happens if the workstation will be down for 1 week or longer. I only want that the job should stay in the queue !!! thx for your answers Paul |
