❒ “printer_name” is the name entered when executing the installation shell
script.
❒ You can use wild cards ( * or ? ) for the file name.
❒ The message “print session full” appears when the maximum number of
print requests has been reached (max. 5 sessions —Job Spool setting availa-
ble). You should try to print again when the number of requests is less than
five. You can check the number of print requests using telnet. For details
about using telnet, see the manual that comes with this machine.
❒ The number of print sessions does not change, whether you increase or re-
duce the machine's total memory size.
