Print Spooled Reports

Application Overview

Spooling reports to disk has many advantages including being able to continue processing even when the printer is busy or not functioning.  The Print Spooled Reports application allows you to print a spooled report as many times as needed.  If the user wants to print several copies of the report, it is much faster to spool one copy of the report and print it several times. Also, when the program writes a report to the disk, it executes much faster than the time it would take for it to write the report directly to a local printer.

You should not delete a spooled report unless it has been printed correctly or if you are positive that a hard copy is not needed.  If you neglect to delete spooled reports from the disk for a lengthy period of time, the disk could become very full. The maximum number of spooled reports is 400.
