Tips for Printer Pooling
Feature Tip for Printer Pooling
Error messages Messages display the name of the main
printer named during the Card Printer Driver
installation, rather than the name of the
specific printer in error.
• To locate the printer with the error
condition, look at each printer in the pool
for warning indicators or LCD messages.
• Card jobs are held at the printer with the
error condition. All subsequent card jobs
will print to other printers in the pool. The
printer with the error is not used by the
pool until the error condition is corrected.
• After correcting the error at the printer,
resume or cancel the print job using the
error message on the PC.
Printer Pooling
information
Printer status, card count, and supplies
information typically shown in the Windows
Printer Properties window is not available to
printers belonging to a printer pool.
For these printers, the
PrinterProperties
window displays Printer Pooling information,
which indicates that the printer belongs to a
printer pool.
Use the Printer Manager to view card counts,
supply information, and printer status of
individual printers in the pool. Refer to the
printer’s Installation and Administrator's Guide
for information about using the Printer
Manager.
