DOCUMENT:Q121077 07-SEP-2001 [winnt] TITLE :WFW Print Manager Limitations with Windows NT Shared PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows NT PROD/VER:3.10 3.5 4.0 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbprint kbPrinting ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Windows NT Server version 3.1 - Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 3.1 - Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server, version 3.1 - Microsoft Windows NT Server versions 3.5, 4.0 - Microsoft Windows NT Workstation versions 3.5, 4.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= When you try to move a print job down in the queue of a Windows NT system from a Windows for Workgroups system, this message is displayed on the WFWG system: This request is not supported by the network MORE INFORMATION ================ The WFWG Print Manager allows various degrees of control over print jobs sent to a shared printer. How much control you have over the print job depends upon where you send it. When you print from a WFWG system to a locally attached printer, you can cancel the job or move it up or down in the queue of pending jobs. When you print to a network printer, you cannot move jobs ahead in the queue. This is by design: it prevents users from advancing their jobs at others' expense. Users can still move jobs down in the queue. When you print to a network printer shared by a Windows NT system, you cannot move jobs up or down in the queue. All you can do is delete your own print jobs.
