The application desktop
The BlueZone Printer Emulator is split into three windows. The top window is the Printer Profile window, the center window is the Print Queue window, and the bottom window is the Print Log window.
Both the Print Queue and the Print Log are used to manage print jobs sent from the host system.
•  Printer profiles
Printer profiles are unique configurations containing the target printer and the settings applied to print job when printing to the printer. Multiple printer profiles can share the same target printer or have unique target printers. Changing the active printer profile only requires clicking the adjacent check box.
The printer profile name is only a label that can be changed at any time.
•  Print queue
The print queue is used to display and manage print jobs. Print jobs are first created and then added to the print queue when print data is received from the host machine. The initial status of a print job is “Spooling...” and is displayed under the Status column, when the Details view is enabled. As the print job spools from the host, the amount of data being received is displayed under the Size column. When the host is finished sending print data, the Status of the print job becomes “Waiting to Print.” When there are no other jobs spooling in the Print Queue the status becomes “Printing...” and the data is then sent to the printer.
Jobs can be Paused, Resumed, Deleted, Renamed and have their configuration changed while residing in the print queue. Also, text files can be opened from disk and added to the print queue.
•  Print log
After a print job has been sent to the printer, the job is then submitted to the print log where it can be renamed, reprinted, or be deleted by the user. Print jobs residing in the print log display the time and date of submission under the Date Time column when the Details view is enabled.
