Abstract:
1. A printing system, comprising: a set of print queues configured to queue print jobs of the printing system, each print queue in the set of print queues configured to queue print jobs of an associated printing device; a memory storing queue settings associated with each print queue in the set of print queues, wherein each queue setting comprises a set of printer settings comprising at least one of operating systems support settings, driver support settings, duplex printing settings, color conversion settings, and image quality settings; at least one processor configured to synchronize the set of print queues based on the queue settings such that print jobs of a first print queue can be equivalently redirected to a second print queue in the set of print queues by analyzing queue settings of the second queue to determine a difference between the first print queue and the second print queue; and a set of printing devices coupled to at least one of the set of print queues and configured to output the print jobs.
