I know that sowwhere in the registry there is a seeting to reduce print
delay when printing from some dos applications.

Can anybody tell me where it is?


Many thanks

If you have problems with DOS print job being delayed you can try one of the
following which I have used successfully


1) in REGEDIT ( START->RUN-> REGEDIT )
click : Hkey_local_machine
then click : System
then click : CurrentControlSet
then click : Control
somewhere at the bottom of the control list Click: WOW
in LPT_timeout property change it to 2 (seconds)

2) Go to SYSTEM.INI file
in [386enh] section search [Network] if it does not exist enter the
following :

[Network]
PrintBufTime=10
[IFSMGR]
PrintBufTime=10

this will reset the wait to 10 seconds
