About
AXIS Print Utility
for Windows
AXIS Print Utility for Windows is a dual purpose application for
network printing in the Windows environment. It has two
fundamental purposes:
1. Install and maintain AXIS 540/640 printer ports as Windows
printer ports.
2. Capture and monitor print jobs directed to the AXIS 540/640
ports. Print jobs are directed through a spool directory either at
your local hard disk (peer-to-peer mode), or at the file server
(client-server mode). The printer port status of your AXIS
540/640 may be monitored and pop-up notification messages can
be generated, keeping you informed of completed print jobs or
any problematic condition.
