THANK YOU…
…for purchasing PTBurn™ Network Software for your Disc Publisher.
This software will enable your Publisher to be accessed by up to 5
users on your network, thus increasing your productivity. PTBurn™
adds the power and flexibility to allow multiple users to schedule
record-and-print disc jobs, with the ability to design labels right from
their workstations.
A. HOW PTBURN NETWORK SOFTWARE WORKS
PTBurn Network Software consists of three unique applications,
PTBurn Server , PTBurn Client and SureThing CD Labeler .
PTBurn Server
is a server application that runs on the PC connected to
your Disc Publisher. This application must be running for the to
accept jobs over the network. The PTBurn Server creates a
'PTBurnJobs Shared Folder' upon installation. This folder is a shared
directory that acts as a collecting point for jobs sent from around the
network. The PTBurn Server Software will constantly monitor the
PTBurnJobs Shared Folder for job requests, and then queue submitted
jobs for processing. The PTBurn Server is able to prioritize jobs, and
will keep a log and status file on all activity in the server.
PTBurn Client runs on up to 5 workstations. Additional user licenses
are available from Primera Technology. The PTBurn Client is a
simple, wizard-like interface that allows a user to easily and quickly
create several different types of recording jobs. PTBurn Client also
provides real-time status to the user allowing them instant access to
the status of the jobs that are being processed.
Once a job is submitted using PTBurn Client, the files to be recorded
and the print file to be used to label the discs are temporarily copied
over to the PTBurnJobs Shared Folder. A job request is also submitted
at that time. The PTBurn Server reads in the job request, records and
prints the discs to fulfill the job, and moves on to the next job in queue.
SureThing CD Labeler is a powerful yet easy-to-use application for
