Overview
OLCS is an application with two components. The first is a Windows printer driver and the
second includes a set of Workflow plug-ins. These two components work together – they cannot
be used on their own.
OLCS allows for PostScript files to be received over the internet from any Windows Desktop
application. It can be used in unlicensed mode and licensed mode.
Unlicensed mode (default) allows users to push documents to OL Connect Send. They will
receive a pop-up tray confirming whether the job was received or not. No web interaction is
possible.
Licensed mode causes the OLCS printer driver to request a web page which will be displayed in
the user’s browser in order to allow them to enter job specific information. The information
from this web page can be used to tell Connect Workflow what to do next.
OLCS, in licensed mode, can be used to create custom interactive workflows from a centralized
location, yet has the ability to be deployed and installed very easily.

Can be licensed in User mode so that specific users (domains/workstations) can print
and receive an interactive web page during the job submission process. The number of
jobs that can be printed is unlimited.
Can be licensed in Credit mode so that any user can print from anywhere and receive
an interactive web page during the job submission process – in this mode Connect Send
requires credits which are reduced after each job received by the server.
