AW: HPT, PJL and Kyocera FS900 Printer

Hi Jim,

we can't set up as RMTOUTQ. IHMO I can't restart the print job at a spezific
page. RMTOUTQ printing is an all or nothing printing with no user control.
One print job contains up to 10.000 pages and therefore manual operating
would be neccessary. Splitting the large output in many little outputs seems
not to be a good idea. We use an overlay and will minimize network traffic.

OTOH all manuals and datasheets from Kyocera, which I know, states that they
support PCL6 and PLJ.

Thanks for your answer.

Erich W. Schasse

i think the statement is true (no support for pjl). This is not ibm's limit,
but
Kyocera not supporting pjl.
Why not set up as rmtoutq? I use afpds on rmtoutq's without a problem.
