Problem:

Is it possible to configure Rumba AS/400 PC print queues interval time?

Resolution:

PC Printer Queues is a feature of Rumba AS/400 printer that lists each network and local printer set up in Windows, along with information about the current jobs on each printer.  By default Rumba sends a status update query to these printers every 3 seconds in order to display the most current job status of each printer. This can cause unwanted traffic on the network. The refresh interval is end-user configurable and can be changed by following the following steps.

·       Launch a Rumba Printer session. Right click on the PC Queues and select “Configure PC Printer Queues…” from the pop-up menu.

·       It presents a dialog with a single entry for the update interval as shown in the image.

·       Change the update interval as desired. For instance, if you enter the number 60  then Rumba will send a status update query every 60 seconds to the printers displayed in the Printer Queues section.
