Can't print thru OS/2 Netware - CAPTURE timeout?
#62

We're trying to install the OS/2 Netware requester on our turnkey
system at a client's site so they can send output to a shared printer
on their Novell network.  The machine is running OS/2 2.1.

We're having trouble printing properly to the printer. I've installed
the June 95 fixes to the Novell requester.

I tested printing by typing:

echo Test ^L > lpt1

at an OS/2 prompt.  When we look at the print queue on the print
server, the print job is there.  It just doesn't get released.  It
finally goes to the printer when I shut down the OS/2 system.

The Netware guru on site said that there needs to be a timeout
parameter applied to the CAPTURE command.  However, although such a
parameter exists in the DOS version of capture, there is no such
parameter in the OS/2 version.

What am I doing wrong, if anything?  Thanks for any help.

If on a Novell news group, please respond via email if possible.

- Keith
