SmartPrinter is and innovative printing software solution which enables you to perform actions that are not commonly supported by most laser printer interfaces. In fact, SmartPrinter allows you to perform actions that are not supported by the source application generating the data file.

The SmartPrinter software contains several components:
* SmartPrinter PrintProcessor
* SmartPrinter PrintController
* SmartPrinter Event Log Viewer
* SmartPrinter LPD Server

Key Benefits:
1. A smooth and painless transition from old dot matrix printers to new laser printers without changing any existing software.
2. Utilize all your printers abilities.
3. Flexible and customizable service for the perfect printing.
4. On Demand application development.

SmartPrinter Features:
1. Printing in Native Languages (such as Hebrew, Greek, Turkish, Etc) even with printers that don't have the language fonts built into the printer.
2. Printing from a variety of environments (such as Mainframe, AS/400, MS-DOS, UNIX, VMS, etc) that do not know how to print to laser printers.
3. Enabling printing from older printer emulations (such as Epson, DEC, Prescribe, etc) to new laser printers that support the PCL5 language without making any changes to the original source application.
4. Printing templates and forms on any printer. The templates are saved on the server, so they can be updated easily and immediately. This does not require burning the templates to the printer's memory, so it can be done even on printers that don't have burnable Flash / Simm / Dim memory, though if desired, the template can be burnt onto the printer's memory and only called from the SmartPrinter software.
5. SmartPrinter enables you to completely customize your output by adding graphical elements, changing the location of the data fields printed on the page, changing the data at processing time, etc. All this without changing the existing software used to generate the document.
6. SmartPrinter can print valid, bank-readable checks from blank paper and a printer that supports MICR toner. The software will print the company logo, bank logo, MICR data and all the check graphics automatically.
7. SmartPrinter enables better utilization of a printer's capabilities, enabling you to print different pages in the same job from different paper trays, changing the text size while printing, adding separator pages to the beginning of a print job, stapling the job, etc.
8. Send faxes automatically to recipients using the numbers written in the document, without having to dial them one by one into Microsoft Fax.
9. Create formatted PDF and TIFF documents for easy archiving.

SmartPrinter software can receive a print job from any operating system. However, SmartPrinter software is installed in a computer running a Windows operating system from one of the following versions: XP / 2000 / 2003 / NT 4.0 / 98. The recommended operating systems are Windows XP or Windows 2003 Server.

How Does It Work?
1.The SmartPrinter software receives the print file from the source application, by simulating a printer in one of three ways:
* LPD-LPR protocol. It is done by using the "TCP/IP Print Server" Service of the server on which the SmartPrinter software is running. Share a Windows printer from the server on which the SmartPrinter software is running to a remote computer (this method is usually in use by MS-DOS / Windows applications).
* RAW (9100, or other ports) protocol. It is done by running an internal RAW Server component that listens on the defined ports.

2.The software performs a series of manipulations on the original print job, according to a set of predefined rules (for example: replace a certain Epson command with the corresponding PCL command), the result is an alternate print job containing all the changes and new definitions.
3.The software then sends the alternate print file to the physical destination printer for the actual print.
It can also send the print job to a fax server for automatic fax sending, or store the print job as a TIFF or PDF file for archive purposes.
