This article was previously published under Q147777 SYMPTOMS
In the Printer Properties-Details dialog box, when you select the "Print
Spooled Jobs First" option and then click OK to close the dialog box and
save, when you go back to the Details dialog box the option is not
selected.
CAUSE
Although the option check box is available, it cannot be implemented unless
the "Job Prints While Spooling" option is selected also. Although not
mentioned in the help file description of this option, the ability to print
spooled jobs has to be enabled before completely spooled jobs can be given
a priority over them.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, upgrade to Windows NT Workstation and Server
version 4.0.
Enable "Print Jobs While Spooling" at the same time as "Print Spooled
Jobs First."
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.5
and 3.51. This problem was corrected in Windows NT Workstation or Server
version 4.0.
