My customer has a 3829 attached to PSF/6000 V1.2.  They would like              
to flush any jobs below a certain page count to reduce wear and                 
tear on the 3829.  Is there a function to define a range of pages               
or lines that a given printer will support?  Is this function                   
available in PSF/6000 V1.2, PSF/AIX V2.1, or Printing Systems Manager?          
                                                                                
                                                                                
A:                                                                             
This capability is available through Printing Systems Manager (PSM)             
| or Infoprint Manager for AIX                                                  
for printers it controls.  PSM can drive either AIX or PSF for AIX V2           
printers.  That function is not available in either PSF/6000 V1 or              
PSF for AIX V2.                                                                 
                                                                                
| In PSM or Infoprint, there is a logical printer attribute called              
"job-size-range-supported" which defines in bytes (not lines) the range         
(lower and upper) of job sizes that the printer can accept.                     
                                                                                
I hope that helps.
