Using the Spool Manager
The Spool Manager works like the Windows Print Manager.
When you send a job to your printer, your printer software
creates a temporary

C:\WINDOWS\TEMP folder or directory, and assigns it to a
print queue. The software then sends the file to your printer at
the right time.
To open the Spool Manager while you’re printing, click
the
Spool
Manager
icon that appears on the Taskbar
(Windows 95) or at the bottom of your desktop
(Windows 3.1).
To open it at any time, double-click the
Spool Manager4
icon in the EPSON program group or folder.
You see the Spool Manager window:
The Spool Manager window displays the status of your print
queues and journal files and lets you control them. Here are
some of the things you can do:
Hold or release a queue
Send journal files to your printer over a network
Hold, re-queue, or delete a journal file
Select the information you want to see in the Spool
Manager window
Prevent the Despooler popup window from appearing on
your screen whenever you print
Change your default spool directory
