NOTE: If the CD does not automatically open, use "My Computer" or "Windows Explorer" to
view the contents of the CD. Then, double-click on the Setup.exe file listed on the CD.
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete installation. Once installed, the "32-
Bit Print Spooler" icon will appear in the Start->Programs->Fargo folder.
NOTE: Occasionally, new 32-Bit Print Spooler versions are released which have new or updated
features. Before installing updated 32-Bit Print Spooler versions, always uninstall the
existing print spooler version from your system. To do this, simply select 32-Bit Print
Spooler from the list of programs in the Add/Remove Programs Properties window, and
click on the Add/Remove button.
To print with the 32-Bit Print Spooler, you must select the Use 32-Bit Spooler
option from within the printer driver setup window as described in Part D of this
section. When this option is selected, the print spooler will automatically open and
close with the start and finish of each print job.
NOTE: You can also manually open the 32-Bit Print Spooler simply by selecting its icon from the
Start->Programs->Fargo folder.
When the 32-Bit Print Spooler is running, its icon will appear in the Windows
95/98 Task Bar. During a print job, it is sometimes helpful to click on this icon to
bring the 32-Bit Print Spooler status window to the foreground of your application.
This window provides a number of details about the print jobs being sent to the
printer.
The Current Job tab tells you the name and size of the file printing, the progress of
the overall print job, as well as the total number of copies left to print. It also
provides buttons which allow you to pause or cancel the print job at any time
during the printing process.
The Settings tab tells you the port and printer to which you are printing and
allows you to configure the timeout settings. In most instances, these settings will
rarely need to be changed. This tab also provides two other options called Save last
job for reprint and Direct to Port Mode.
