HKLM \SYSTEM \CurrentControlSet \Control \Print Entry : SchedulerThreadPriority System : NT, 2K Type : REG_DWORD Range : -1, 0 or 1 Default : 0 |
||||||||||
Determines the priority of the
scheduler thread which is the thread used to assign jobs
to ports. The priority of a thread determines the order
in which it is scheduled to run on the processor.

HKLM \SYSTEM \CurrentControlSet \Control \Print Entry : JobPrintWhilstSpooling System : NT, 2K Type : REG_DWORD Range : 0 or 1 Default : 0 |
||||||||||
1 : Enables simultaneous printing and spooling. | ||||||||||
Key :
HKLM \SYSTEM \CurrentControlSet \Control \Print Entry : FastPrintThrottleTimeout System : NT, 2K Type : REG_DWORD Range : 0 to n Default : 2 000 (2 seconds) |
||||||||||
Delay in milliseconds. When JobPrintsWhilstSpooling is enabled, some printers encounter an error if they do not receive data within 15 seconds for postscript printers. To solve that problem, the spooler sends the last sent data a second time when FastPrintSlowDownThreshold is reached. At that time, FastPrintThrottleTimeout has a byte per defined period sent to the printer until FastPrintSlowDownThreshold is reached. | ||||||||||
Key :
HKLM \SYSTEM \CurrentControlSet \Control \Print Entry : FastPrintWaitTimeout System : NT, 2K Type : REG_DWORD Range : 0 to n Default : 24 000 (4 minutes) |
||||||||||
Delay in milliseconds. When JobPrintsWhilstSpooling is enabled, the thread used to assign jobs to ports must be synchronized with the application used for spooling. This entry indicates the period the thread will wait until abortion, current job spooling and handling the next job. | ||||||||||
Key :
HKLM \SYSTEM \CurrentControlSet \Control \Print Entry : FastPrintSlowDownThreshold System : NT, 2K Type : REG_DWORD Range : 0 to n Default : FastPrintWaitTimeout / FastPrintThrottleTimeout |
||||||||||
Delay in milliseconds. Default is FastPrintWaitTimeout divided by FastPrintThrottleTimeout. | ||||||||||
Key :
HKLM \SYSTEM \CurrentControlSet \Control \Print Entry : NetPrinterDecayPeriod System : NT, 2K Type : REG_DWORD Range : 0 to n Default : 3 600 000 (1 hour) |
