We have managed to squeeze out about a 20 percent performance increase by improving the buffering algorithm. This should help those of you using NET SatisFAXtion as a plain paper fax solution. - WHAT ELSE CAN BE DONE TO IMPROVE PRINTING SPEED? Print in Standard mode instead of Fine mode. The loss in resolution is often acceptable for faster printing speed. Don't print to postscript. Printing faxes to a postscript printer is much slower than other printing modes. If your printer supports both postscript and PCL mode, use the PCL mode. Dedicate a PC to AUTOPRNT. Although AUTOPRNT can be run on the fax server, it will print much slower than on a workstation. The faster the computer, the faster AUTOPRNT can resize the image for printing. Assign multiple printers to a Novell print queue. Attach the printer directly to the system running AUTOPRNT. ÚÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿ ³ INSTALLING THE UPDATE ³ ÀÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ INSTALLATION STEPS - Simply copy the new AUTOPRNT.EXE file (extracted from the 24.EXE file) over the old AUTOPRNT.EXE. For example: COPY C:\TEMP\AUTOPRNT.EXE C:\FAX - Run AUTOPRNT as usual. ÚÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ¿ ³ AUTOPRNT ON THE FAX SERVER ³ ÀÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÙ - You can run AUTOPRNT on the fax server, but it will print very slowly. Also, the fax server must have at least 1M byte of expanded memory for AUTOPRNT to work. To run AUTOPRNT at the fax server, follow these steps: 1. Use SERVESET to configure the fax server for nondedicated mode. 2. Use SETUP to set up the user software on the fax server. Use AUTOPRINT as the fax user name. 3. Run FAXNODE and AUTOPRNT after the fax server loads. WARNING - The extra overhead of printing could over tax a busy fax server. This configuration is not recommended for anything slower that a 386 system.If the performance degradation of the fax server is unacceptable, you should run AUTOPRNT on a separate workstation.
