File Queuer Connectivity Module
The File Queuer input connectivity module of the Solimar® Print Director™ Enterprise (SPDE) is an integral part of the system’s robust queue management. The module reads files from directories on local or network disk drives. Typically data is received by an integrated input communication module and captured to a local directory. The File Queuer processes and routes the data from specified directories based on configuration requirements.
