[cups.bugs] CUPS out-of-paper retry time

[John Vincent]

Hi all,

I was wondering if there is anywhere that can be set in the config files 
to specify how quickly cups should retry a print job for things like 
out-of-paper?

The issue we are running into is that our retail stores are having to 
wait 5 minutes for a job to reprint if for some reason, the printer has 
run out of paper. Current setup is CUPS printing to HP LaserJet 300 
printers connected to the store network via Linksys WPS11 devices. Those 
devices only support lpd (at least as far as CUPS can use).

The store will replace the paper rather quickly on the reciept printers 
but we also have check printers of the same config connected to cups 
that will never be kept with check stock. Those are fed manually.

If for some reason the check paper gets pulled back out before cups gets 
a chance to start the job, it won't retry for at least 5 minutes.

Any tips?

Thanks.
John E. Vincent
