- Execute printJOB Executor.exe and select target PC, then browse file to print. After that filename,target PC name,print status,print job creation timestamp and file itself are placed in MySQL DB.
- At the same time, executed "prinJOB Client.exe" will periodically (2 min by default) querry DB for jobs on computer runned on and updates branch_list.last_active column, and if there is some job, prints it on default printer.
- Executed "printJOB Server.exe" with 2 minute period disables PC's what was inactive for more than 5 minutes (branch_list.last_active and "branch_list.a_status").
- image print - by now only ".PDF"/".DOC"/".DOCX" files are supported to print, "JPG/JPEG/BMP/PNG" format files are in planed functionality.
