Abstract:
In one embodiment, path data is received. The path data is indicative of a plurality of connectivity paths to electronically connect a computer and a printer. A graphic user interface is provided for display to a user, the interface to enable sending of print jobs to a print queue. The queue is to hold the print jobs to be sent to the printer, and is without limitation to a specific path among the plurality of paths. A command for the computer to send a first print job to the printer is received via the interface. The plurality of paths is monitored to identify an available path among the plurality of paths. The first print job is caused to be sent from the queue to the printer via the available path.
