PrintBack Agent—Installed on your computer, the agent retrieves print jobs from the online
service and prints them to your default printer.
To print, the computer and the default printer must be turned on and ready to print. If documents are
sent while the computer or printer are not ready or not connected, the online service stores the
documents. They are retrieved and printed when the computer is turned on and connected to the
network again.
