Avaible modules

UNISPOOL encapsulates logical groups of functions and services within a set of modules that each provides well-defined optional capabilities. This packaging concept enables user organizations to tailor the UNISPOOL solution precisely to their current requirements.


1. MANAGEMENT MODULE command-line & menu interfaces, basic output file management, configuration and security services.

2. LOCAL OUTPUT supports the more traditional method of printing. It facilities access to server connected devices as well as devices slaved from a terminal or PC running emulation software.

3. NETWORK SERVER TRANSFER provides the transfer of output files from one host to another, offering network-wide access to specific output devices; enables receiving output files from systems on which UNISPOOL is not running, using the industry standard LPD-protocol.

4. AUTOMATED DISTRIBUTION AND CONTROL enables fully automated output file management and distribution.

5. NETWORK OUTPUT enables direct access to network-connected output devices with integrated resource sharing services.

6. WINDOWS INTEGRATION it can transfer output files bidirectionally between the server and PC running Microsoft Windows 3.11, 9x, ΝΤ.

7. NOVELL enables the inclusion of one or more Novell LANs into the printing network.

8. ADVANCED MANAGEMENT contains 3 sophisticated interfaces: Browser Interface: a web based user interface through which your end-users can easily view and, if security permits, manipulate their print requests using simple point-and-click techniques; Commander: a centralized management station for your systems administrator that enables the entire printing environment to be controlled with ease from a Windows PC; Motif Interface: a X/Windows based interface for system operators working in an UNIX environment providing an optimal control of their printing environment.
