What is MicroSpool™?
An OPI Spooler that utilizes a central server (rather than individual workstations) to manage
printing and image management tasks. MicroSpool accepts print jobs quickly and spools to
disk for faster workstation release. With MicroSpool, you can print to the MicroPress® Print-
Stations™ and networked PostScript printers, and built-in AppleTalk queues appear to Apple-
Talk workstations in the same way as LaserWriters

Key Benefits
Understanding Queues and Devices
MicroSpool queues look like printers on the network but, unlike standard printers, can accept
an unlimited number of jobs from multiple workstations simultaneously. MicroSpool queues
drive the output devices they publish to. A queue receives all print jobs quickly, processes
them with pre-defined commands, and sends them to the output device

You can configure queues to retain jobs after printing or when an error occurs, eliminating the
need to return to the workstation to reprint a job. With MicroSpool, you can store printer fonts
in a centralized location for sharing among configured output devices.

You can set up MicroSpool queues with assigned priorities to print jobs in order of impor-

PostScript commands, routines, or procedures to a job before or after printing.
