Hello

I have printing problem on SCO Openserver 5.0.5.
My problem is this, I have users working on Wyse65 terminals printing to a HP 8050N Laserjet printer.If and when 2 user send a printjob to the printer at the same time from the application, and both printjobs are 5 pages or more both printjobs print at the same time, in other words the 2 printjobs will print at the same time thus causeing the reports to get mixed up, although each page is printing on its own page but page 1 of job number 1 will print first and then page 2 of job number 1 and next it will print page 1 of print job number 2 before completing job number 1 and then it will print page 3 of job number 1 and the next page to print will be page 2 of print job number 2.

How can I make it so that print job number 1 will finish before printjob number 2 starts.

Is it somthing that needs to be set in the spooler or on the printer.

Rgds
