Load balancing
PlanetPress Workflow offers various load balancing options to distribute the printing load and
to make the process faster and more efficient. Print jobs may, for example, be split equally
among several printers, or they may be split according to each printer’s capacity and speed.
Load balancing can only be used for jobs sent to Printer Queue output tasks and it only
applies when multiple Workflow Printer Queues are selected.
