Subject: RE: Printers not working properly after V4R2 upgrade: Fixed!!!!!

Hello all:

I have fixed the problem.  There were a few changes that had to be made to our
printing defaults.  We had documentation for it apparently, I just couldn't find
it.

Barspool is a PC based remote print spooling program we use for our impact
printers.

Thanks for responding!

Steve Roach

 This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
 First question:  What is "BARSPOOL"?
