Configuring HFP Settings
HFP, or
Hot Folder Printing
, is a transfer method where a hot folder (or “watched folder”) is continuously monitored by the
WPS Pro system. Images copied into this folder are automatically printed and then removed. Hot folders are used both for
manual image imports (copying and pasting files into the hot folder) and for integration with third party software (often via
FTP to the hot folder). Hot folder printing allows you to load larger quantities of prints at a time to the print folder.
Configuring HFP
Enables or disables the HFP transfer option. Only enable HFP if you are planning on using that transfer option. If you disable
the HFP transfer option, be sure to enable the FTP transfer option.
