User Tip #49: Submit print jobs to wait afterhours to print

Hits: Failed to execute CGI : Win32 Error Code = 3


To configure usage hours on a Windows NT print queue:

  1. Select My Computer
  2. Select Printers
  3. Right click on your printer and select properties
  4. Click the Scheduling tab and at the top in the Available section enter a From and a To time, e.g. 18:00 - 08:30
  5. Click OK to save your changes
Jobs submitted to this print queue will now only be printed between the hours specified. If you wanted some jobs to be printed straight away, you should define two queues, one for overnight, one for all hours (now).
