When you try to move a print job down in the queue of a Windows NT system
from a Windows for Workgroups system, this message is displayed on the
WFWG system:
This request is not supported by the network
MORE INFORMATION
The WFWG Print Manager allows various degrees of control over print jobs
sent to a shared printer. How much control you have over the print job
depends upon where you send it. When you print from a WFWG system to a
locally attached printer, you can cancel the job or move it up or down in
the queue of pending jobs.
When you print to a network printer, you cannot move jobs ahead in the
queue. This is by design: it prevents users from advancing their jobs
at others' expense. Users can still move jobs down in the queue.
When you print to a network printer shared by a Windows NT system, you
cannot move jobs up or down in the queue. All you can do is delete your
own print jobs.
