>>>In printing from FoxPro for DOS, running under Win95 to a Novell Network, it is taking 50 seconds to release the job from Win95 (regardless of capture/timeout settings in 95 or NetWare). Disabling the spooling in Win95 has doesn't solve this problem. Does anyone _KNOW_ how to get around these extended print delay problems?
>>>The same app. running under NetWare VLMs prints the report in 2 seconds.

>No, has this worked for you? Have you had the same problem in printing reports from DOS based Foxpro in 95? You can actually see the 95 spooling process continues even though the foxpro print job is done. Thanks for the tip. I'll certainly try it.

Gino, I've used the SET PRINTER TO (all by itself) clause to close the spooler on a recent Win95 app and it worked fine. We used to use this in Clipper apps, as well, which are similar to FPDos
