Does anyone know how to 'close' a print job using BIOS calls?
I have a printer server that dumps files using BIOS, but for
shared printers it never closes the printer therefore never
releaseing the job.  Is there an easy call to do this?  Please
respond directly as I do not subscribe to comp.os.msdos.programmer
Thanks in advance!
