Using the ‘Launch Browser’ Feature

If a printer listed in the Status dialog window has been configured in Loftware with an IP address, you can open a Print Server Web Page for the printer in a browser window.  To do this, right-click on the printer and press Launch Browser.

File Editor

The File Editor is launched by right clicking on a printed job on the Status dialog and selecting View File.  It is used to make changes to a job’s file and resend the job.  This is very helpful when your system is in its beginning stages and you want to debug and fix your requests ‘on-the-fly’ from the status program.

Note: To change the printer to which the job was assigned you MUST change the Printer Number edit box rather than the file, as the file itself is NOT re-processed!
