Pop-up Message Halts Printing and Causes Bad Print Jobs

ID: Q90235

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows for Workgroups version 3.1
Microsoft Workgroup Connections, version 1.0

If you use the Windows for Workgroups or Workgroup Connections pop-up terminate and stay resident (TSR) program (started with the NET START POPUP command) while an MS-DOS-based application is printing to a redirected port (a print server), the print job may be halted. When you clear the pop-up dialog box, the print job resumes, often becoming garbled as the printer misinterprets the rest of the print job.
