HEADER | WHY SPOOL? |
TEXT | There are several reasons to spool: - The program can run to completion without printer problems interfering. Spooling saves output in a buffer area for printing at a later time. This happens when you send or queue to the spool device. It's a good way to store the results of a time-consuming calculation, such a complex VA File Manager search or print option. It also provides on-line storage so you can quickly print multiple copies at any time. - The printer may not be free. - Multiple copies may be desired. - Your program may require intensive processing time and is best run at night when the computer is lightly used. Output can then be printed during the day when someone can attend the printer. |
