Redirecting Print Jobs
when a Printer is Busy
If print data is received for a printer that is already busy, the host
normally must wait. However, with a two-port print server it is possible to
use a logical printer to redirect the print data to another logical printer
when the target printer is busy. If the second printer is also busy, the host
must wait until the target printer is ready.
Example: Follow the instructions below to redirect PR1 print jobs to PR3, when the
printer assigned to PR1 is busy (USB1 and LPT2 are used as examples
here):
1. From the print server’s internal Web page, select Admin | Logical
Printers.
2. Select the PR1 tab.
3. Set the Physical Port parameter to USB1.
1. Set the Secondary Printer parameter to PR3.
2. Set the Wait On Busy parameter to NO.
3. Click the OK button.
4. Select Admin | Logical Printers and the PR3 tab.
5. Set the Physical Port parameter to LPT2.
6. Click the OK button.
Notes:
Read Back of
information
The AXIS 5570e/AXIS 5670e support bi-directional printing. The
information from the printer is read back on the parallel port when the
parameter Read Back Port (PRx_IN.) has the default setting of AUTO.
However, it is required that the printer also supports bi-directional

• The two printers must use the same printer driver.
• Logical Printer redirection cannot be nested. If PR3 is redirected to another logical printer,
the print job will not be redirected if PR3 is busy.
• If both printers are busy, the print job will be printed on the printer that first finishes its
active print job.
