About queues

Repro Desk Server queues help you organize the numerous jobs in the system.
Queues can be used to:
keep track of jobs sent by clients
archive printed jobs
automatically print orders that come in
support multiple machines
print directly without operator intervention
print native files without converting to VIC format
share a modem
Queues can be configured to search automatically for new jobs as they arrive
and to make the screen flash to alert an operator. You can drag and drop jobs
among queues, or print a job's work order without printing the job itself.
In Windows Explorer, queues appear as either files with the filename extension
.q or, in the case of archive and polling queues, as folders.
Although the Queue Creation Wizard is always used to create a queue, you will
select different combinations of settings depending on the queue's purpose.

What is the Incoming queue

Repro Desk creates a default directory when you first run the application and
names it Incoming. This directory can be used to place all queues that you
create.

What is an archive queue

Queues can be used to keep a record of every job you have printed, or to hold
jobs you might need to print again. You can set up Repro Desk to automatically
archive jobs, or you can use Windows drag-and-drop functionality to transfer
jobs manually.
An archive queue is usually a subdirectory of another queue.
