Additional Monitoring Options in
Windows NT 4.0
Windows NT 4.0 servers and workstations include a messenger
service to alert you to printer errors or let you know when a
print job is finished. If you have appropriate network access
privileges or you’re controlling printing from the server, you
can also cancel, pause, or restart print jobs and set the sharing,
security, scheduling, and port options. See your Windows NT
documentation for details.
Managing Print Jobs in
Windows 3.1
Your Windows printer software includes two management
utilities: the Spool Manager and Despooler.
The Spool Manager starts automatically when you send a
job to the printer. It allows you to print in the background
while you continue to work on your computer and to hold
jobs to print at a later time. It also handles multiple print
jobs that come in from different computers on the network
at the same time. See the next section for details.
The Despooler also starts automatically when you send a
job to the printer. It displays on your screen to alert you
about printer status. See page 1-6 for more information on
the Despooler.
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 print job file, stores it in the C:\TEMP or
C:\WINDOWS\TEMP directory, and assigns it to a print
queue. The software then sends the file to your printer at the
right time.
