Printing
When you print a document using background printing, the driver saves
a copy of the document you are printing as a spool file, then returns the
use of your computer to you. SpoolMaster reads the file and continues
printing in the background—information is retrieved from the disk,
processed, and sent to the printer until the document is printed. When
printing is complete, the spool file is deleted.
