[cups.general] queues going down

I have a couple of customers that continually indicate that their queues
are going down at the most inappropriate time.  It seems that it is
happening when the printer runs out of paper or the out bin is full and
requires operator intervention to remove it.

My question is, how long a time frame is given BEFORE the queue gets a
signal to go down while waiting on human intervention.  I realize that
this is by design so as to prevent loss of data in the output reports.

I can't seem to find the answer to this anywhere and am hoping that
someone can let me know.

I need to be able to inform my customer of what the software
requirements are.

We are running Linux Red Hat 4.0 with CUPS v.1.1.23.

Thank you for any help provided and have a GREAT day!
