Hide Printer

[John Esak]

You  can't do what you want  with the -pq option. (At least not in any
current version I don't think... but I believe it is on the "todo" wish
list. IN any case, I have been doing this for a while out of processing when
it is needed. You can edit the filePro "config" file to make use of the
comment field. Specify which printers you want the various users to see when
they are presented with a "Choose Printer" list. Then with I/O readline
search through this file for only those printers you want, and populate a
LISTBOX. Put up the LISTBOX and act on their choice by using PRINTER NAME
"theirchoice".  It works prteey slick. I believe I putthis code up in the FP
Room once or twice.
