causes long print jobs to fail when using a Printer/Fax server. If
you are having trouble printing long jobs (over 1MB), add the
line mx#0 to your
etc/printcap file entry.
10 If you cannot print from DEC TCP/IP Service for VMS (UCX),
make sure that you have version 2.0B or later of this software,
because earlier versions will not work with Brother Print/Fax
servers.
