SYMPTOMS

You cannot print from more than one Microsoft Pocket Excel session over the network at a time. Each print job must finish before the next job can be started.

CAUSE

This is a limitation in the Multimedia Graphics Device Interface (MGDI) and the printer driver. The MGDI and printer driver can support only one print job at a time. The first print job must finish before you can start the next. Interacting with the documents that are not being printed may be slow because Pocket Excel is a single-threaded program.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
