The print Manager is used to control print jobs. Print Jobs you say? Any time a report or POS receipt is printed it is first saved to your computer and waits for a program which manages the printer.  It reads the report and sends the information to the printer. In the event that many reports or jobs are being sent to one printer, it is the job of this program or spooler to send them in sequence to the printer. Each printer has a spooler managing its jobs.

The print manager allows you to stop jobs from being printed or delete them. It can also be used to start and stop the printers print spooler program.
