Kurz:     Druckauftragsmanager für AmigaOS3 (39.38)

PrintManager v39 is a so called printer-spooler, it intercepts all printer.
device calls to the parallel-/serial.device and saves the printer specific 
raw data to a file. This way, programs sending data to the printer don't have
to wait for the slow printer to continue. PrintManager also gives you some 
control over the data send to the printer. You can even print files directly 
from inside PrintManager using the datatypes-system. 

FEATURES
 - OS4 native version included
 - caches only printer.device calls
 - can cache all calls to parallel-/serial.devices
 - allows to exclude certain tasks from spooling
 - nice gui which works with proportional fonts 
 - files can be printed from inside Printmanager (uses datatypes.lib)
 - works with datatypes.library v45 (v45 recommend, not required!)
 - own FAST parallel.device (registered version only)
 - localized
 - after reset/crash unfinished printings are recovered
 - delayed printing
 - print count function
 - allows to redirect printing to another device
 - upto 10 devices can be spooled
 - ...
 
REQUIREMENTS
 any Amiga (compatible) computer with at least AmigaOS3.0 and (of course:-)
 a printer.

NOTE
 Although this program is based on Printmanager 2.0 by Nicola Salmoria,
 no part of the Printmanager v39 code has been taken from Nicolas
 version (it is a completely new program)!

HISTORY
  39.38 runs under OS4 final, now.
