What platform is the FPD app running? These are generally not parameters for a VFP command to pass. This is handled strictly by Novell at the DOS prompt or Client32. In Windows, this is usually set in the properties of the printer (Settings tab).

In the Network Neighborhood properties, there is a tab in the properties of the Novell Client for Default Printer Settings to turn these off as well.

The syntax in DOS is:

capture LPTx q = q_name nb nff ti = #_of_seconds

If you type CAPTURE /? you can see a list of parameters you can pass. You can also add a NOEJECT at the end of your FP print command to prevent an extra form feed.
