Changing page range options on a spoolfile

When I change the page range on a spoolfile and move it to a remote output queue, it prints the whole spoolfile, anyway. I set up the remote output queue -- per one of your tips -- and it's great being able to use the LAN printer, but I frequently need just a page or two out of a large listing. Is there a way to make that work?
You should have an exit program in QUSRTOOL called TSPRWPR that will allow page range options. In some cases, setting the DESTOPT parameter to 'XAIX XAUTOQ' works.
