fixed NPRO length because of preprocessing or

postprocessing device usage.

Setting the “NPRO Length” configuration item under the

“Pre/Postprocessor Extended NPRO” value overrides the

“Configure Printer NPRO Length” value if both are set to

non-zero values.

Preprocessing or Postprocessing device going to “Busy”

status before the status automatically changes to “Not

host system, but does report “Not Ready” status.
