JOHN HABS Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Recently had some problems with my printer: Document waiting in queue - can't cancel. Thankfully that has now solved and rectified - but whilst I was following instructions on how to get rid of the document and clear it, looking in printer properties I saw a ticked box which said something about ' Spooling ' What does this term mean ?

Ghozer Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 In computing, SPOOL is an acronym for simultaneous peripheral operations on-line. It is a type of buffering. The most common spooling application is print spooling, which places a task (or 'print job') into a queue for extended or later processing. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spooling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
