Message display in remote printer mode

This network card temporarily stops receiving next queue(s) while receiving a job in the NetWare Remote Printer Mode. When this happens, the NetWare server side handles this as temporary disconnection and a message to that effect is sent to the client side. Once the network card completes receiving of the current job, however, the connection with next queue is made and the receiving process starts normally. It is possible to change the display interval of the message from the NetWare server and user(s) for whom the message is displayed. You may change the settings as you see fit.
