Changing Printer request numbers
For SCO openserver
In the directory /usr/spool/lp/temp there will be a file called .SEQF
if you page that file you will see something like this
1:999999:1:69510
This file is configured thusly, Start number: End number : Increment: Current ID number.
So in the above it reads that the first ID number is 1, the largest ID number is 999999, requests ID numbers will be incremented by 1, and that the current ID number is 69510. If you shutdown the print schedular you can then edit these numbers to what ever you want, save the file and then restart the print spooler.
So if you wanted to reset your printer ID numbers to 100 you would need to change the .SEQF file to read
1:999999:1:100
