Printer Licenses


FTSpooler is licensed to a given number of concurrent printers.

FTSpooler needs to select only PCL5 or PS compatible printer(s) connected to your system by checking the option(s). Printers that are used for both PCL5 and PS need only be chosen once as the data stream is fully inclusive of and selects the language that will be used.

Install either a local or network PCL5 /PS printer to the system.

Selection of the option Next time discover remote printers (can lead to delays) allows you to use printers which are not defined on the local machine but within the domain. However, it may take long time to respond depending on the size of your domain and protocols used to discover printers. The response time has no implications on the speed of printing. By default, this option is not selected.

To configure printer licenses:

  • Choose Printers from the Options menu.
  • The Printers dialog will appear. The number of licensed printers appears in the title bar of the dialog.
  • Check the printers in the list that you wish FTSpooler to print to, up to a maximum number of licensed printers. 
  • Click OK to save the printer license settings.
  • You will now see a list of available printers in the Print tab of your queue properties.

After selecting the option Next time discover remote printers (can lead to delays), you will be able to see all the printers within the domain.
