  • Subject: Spool file truncation
  • From: Rob Berendt <rob@xxxxxxxxx>
  • Date: Tue, 23 May 2000 14:44:40 -0500

I have a spool file that is 198 columns when I view it, 
but only 172 columns print out.  I am printing on a Lexmark 
OptraS 1650.  I have enclosed the spool file attributes, 
and the device description.



Spool file attributes.
