My application print labels on a "Zebra" printer connected to a winXP (client).
I use a lpr/lpd communication.
If I print label 1 by 1 and I let document leave the win2003 spooler then
everything is OK. But if I throw many labels and the queue of the win2003
spooler increase.
The print stop sometimes and I must wait ~30 secondes to print the
following.
I got the same problem winCE(client)LPD and RDP.

I don't have problem with LOCAL PORT because this the winXP spooler who
drive the queue.

I search for parameter like a time-out to tell to the WIN2003 spooler to
release
document quickly when the client is free.

Thanks

I think your only chance for getting a printer like this to work is with a
3rd party program like ThinPrint or Screwdrivers, as the Zebra Drivers are
likely not TS compatible, and can cause bigger problems than not being able
to print, i.e. Spooler Failures, BSOD...
