    The Spooler subsystem is a set of utilities that form an interface between you (and your application programs) and the print devices of an HP NonStop system. Instead of directing application output directly to a printer, the Spooler allows you to store the output as jobs in a disk file, and then peruse or queue the output to be sent to a designated printer when it becomes available for printing.
