Spool scanning intervall

[Bertram Scharpf]

Hi,

after an upgrade to CUPS 1.3.7 (Gentoo), on a large amount of
print jobs, the printer pauses after every three pages.

I detected that the backend for each job gets started
every 5 seconds:

# grep Started /var/log/cups/error_log
I [27/May/2008:18:25:10 +0200] [Job 51243] Started backend ...
I [27/May/2008:18:25:15 +0200] [Job 51244] Started backend ...
I [27/May/2008:18:25:20 +0200] [Job 51245] Started backend ...
I [27/May/2008:18:25:25 +0200] [Job 51246] Started backend ...
...

I cannot find the configuration parameter where this interval could be shortened. Could anyone give me a hint?

Thanks in advance,

Bertram
