About
AXIS Print Utility
for Windows
AXIS Print Utility for Windows is an application for network printing
in the Windows environment. It allows you to:
• Install and maintain AXIS 5600 printer ports as Windows printer
ports.
• Capture and monitor print jobs directed to the AXIS 5600 ports.
Print jobs are directed through a spool directory located on your local
hard disk (peer-to-peer mode), or on the file server (client-server
mode). The printer port status of your AXIS 5600 can be monitored
and pop-up notification messages can be generated, keeping you
informed of completed print jobs or any problem condition.
