22 Chapter 3– Printing From Your Computer
Overview
To print a job from a client workstation, select one of the following
methods:
• Print the job via one of the IC-301 print controller network
(virtual) printers—for example,
Print
.
The job is spooled and then processed or printed (according to
the selected job flow of the virtual printer). If you use this
method, you can print from any application —for example,
Microsoft Word— and use any file format from any client
workstation (Windows, Macintosh, or UNIX).
•
Drag the files to a hot folder.
The job is spooled and processed or printed (according to the
selected job flow of the corresponding virtual printer).
If you use the hot folder method, you can print most PDL files
on the IC-301 print controller— for example, PostScript, PDF,
EPS, and Variable Print Specification files.
For more information about printing from a client workstation, see

Note: PDL jobs that are spooled to the IC-301 print controller must have
the appropriate file name extensions—for example, *.ps or *.pdf.
