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.
In the General tab of the Printer Queue Output Properties dialog box, you may select multiple
printers, and in the Advanced tab, you can set the load balancing options for the selected
printers.
Associating PlanetPress Design documents and
PlanetPress printer queues
One of the resources stored in a PlanetPress Workflow printer queue is the list of PlanetPress
Design documents associated with it. Also stored in the printer queue are the properties of each
document associated with the queue.
Note that Workflow printer queues are different from normal printer queues; see "PlanetPress
Workflow printer queues" on page112.
