TITLE   :PRB: Print Job Does Not Print Until FoxPro for UNIX Is Exited
PRODUCT :Microsoft FoxPro
PROD/VER:2.60
OPER/SYS:UNIX
KEYWORDS:kbprint kbprb

--------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft FoxPro for UNIX, version 2.6
--------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When a print job is sent to the printer, it does not print until you quit
FoxPro.

RESOLUTION
==========

Make sure that the system memory variable _PRN has the following string
assigned to it:

   <spooler command> -d<printer name> -s

For example, you could do this by issuing the following command

   SET PRINTER TO "lp -dpost -s"

where "lp" is the UNIX spooler command and "post" is the name of the
destination printer. "lpr" is also a valid UNIX spooler command. The -s
option suppresses the display of the identification number of each print
request.
