The Print Server is the backend application to convert orders into the format used for one or more different interfaces for printing. It supports many common minilab printer interfaces, such as Noritsu DPOF, and Fuji PIC, and can help
automate your workflow for a quick turnaround.

  1. Access Settings > Fulfillment > Print Server.
  2. On the right panel, the following options are available:
  • Print Server hotfolder: The folder path where Print Server picks up the orders for processing. The default setting is C:\APM_TRANSFER\orders\local, and this path normally should not be changed.
  • Start the Print Server automatically: Check the box to start the Print Server automatically when an order is sent to print.
  • Fit photos to paper: Check the box to shrink photos to fit to the paper option (images shot at 4x5.33 printed on 4x6 will exhibit white borders on two sides as the image is "fit-in" to the print size).
  • APM Setup Wizard: Click on the APM Setup Wizard button to open the Setup Wizard application. This is used to access, configure, and setup your printer interfaces to your minilabs, dye sublimination printers, hotfolders, etc.

3. After making the necessary changes, press Apply Changes or Save and exit.
