摘要:
A system for prioritizing a cache of print jobs associated with at least one print driver includes a workstation having a processing unit and at least one print driver having a processing unit, that interface via a network. The workstation implements a print job request for a document and determines whether a document key identifier associated with the document exists. If not, a key is created. If a printer-readable format for a document associated with the key identifier is stored in or is pre-existing in one of at least two caches, the print driver assigns a prioritization identifier to the format. The system retrieves the printer-readable format from the cache to produce a print job output. Since the cache stores the document in printer-readable format, overall printing time is reduced. The format may be moved from one cache to another depending upon priority. The corresponding method is also disclosed.
摘要(中):
用于对与至少一个打印驱动程序相关联的打印作业的高速缓存进行优先排序的系统包括具有处理单元的工作站和具有经由网络进行接口的处理单元的至少一个打印驱动程序。 工作站对文档执行打印作业请求,并确定与文档相关联的文档关键字标识是否存在。 如果没有,则创建一个密钥。 如果与密钥标识符相关联的文档的打印机可读格式存储在至少两个高速缓存之一中或者已经存在于至少两个高速缓存之一中,则打印驱动程序为该格式分配优先级标识符。 系统从高速缓存中检索打印机可读格式以产生打印作业输出。 由于缓存以打印机可读格式存储文档,所以整体打印时间减少。 取决于优先级,格式可以从一个缓存移动到另一个缓存。 还公开了相应的方法。
