Charles, PrintCache is from LaserTools in Emoryville, CA. Among the heavy duty DTP and Postscript crowd, it is THE print spooler. It's literally just like printing a job to a file. Once it's in the spooler, there is NO, and I repeat NO, slowdown in windows! And that's using it with a disk cache. Loads hi with Qemm and only takes up about 19k. It's SO nice not having molassis windows for thirty minutes while you print a 4 or 5 meg PS file. It even works beautifully for downloading fonts. And the irony of the whole thing is that it's a DOS app not even designed for windows. They will have a windows specific version out in a few months, but other than being able to see the spooler status without having to shell to DOS, I'm not sure what could be any better. –dennis There are 2 Replies.
