| Data type | Range | Default value |
|---|---|---|
| REG_DWORD | 0 | 1 | 0 |
Determines whether requests sent to the spooler are synchronous or asynchronous.
If requests are synchronous, print jobs are printed in the order in which they begin spooling. This might cause jobs that have finished spooling to wait for jobs that began spooling first, but are not yet complete.
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0 | Print requests are processed asynchronously. Print jobs begin printing as soon as data is spooled. |
| 1 | Print requests are processed synchronously. Print jobs are printed in the order in which their first bytes are spooled. |
Note
Windows 2000 does not add this entry to the registry. You can add it by editing the registry or by using a program that edits the registry.
