This specifies that printing should not start until the last 
page has been spooled. If your application program needs 
a lot of time for further computation in the middle of 
printing, causing the print job to pause for more than a 
short period, the printer could prematurely assume that 
the document has finished. Selecting this option would 
prevent that situation, but printing will be completed a 
little later, as the start is delayed.
5.
Start printing immediately
This is the opposite choice to the one above. Printing 
starts as soon as possible after the document begins 
spooling.
6.
Print directly to the printer
This specifies that the document should not be spooled, 
but printed directly. Your application will not normally be 
ready for further use until the print job is complete. This 
requires less disk space on your computer, since there is 
no spool file.
7.
Hold mismatched documents
Directs the spooler to check the document setup and 
match it to the printer setup before sending the document 
to print. If a mismatch is detected, the document is held 
in the print queue and does not print until the printer 
setup is changed and the document restarted from the 
print queue. Mismatched documents in the queue will not 
prevent correctly matched documents from printing.
8.
Print spooled documents first
Specifies that the spooler should favor documents which 
have completed spooling when deciding which document 
to print next, even if completed documents are lower 
priority than documents which are still spooling. If no 
documents have completed spooling, the spooler will 
favor larger spooling documents over shorter ones. Use 
this option if you want to maximise printer efficiency. 
When this option is disabled the spooler chooses 
documents based only on their priority settings.
9.
Keep printed documents
Specifies that the spooler should not delete documents 
after they are completed. This allows documents to be re-
submitted to the printer from the spooler instead of
