According to the data management guide (SC41-3710), offset 44 in the open 
feedback area of the file information data structure contains "Maximum Record 
Length". The documentation says it's valid for all file types. I don't know if 
this relates to the printer file record length, but it might. I'd guess it 
probably is the length of the largest output buffer in the file though.
