Output Rules Workflows
Output Rules is a PrinterLogic Output tool that automates print and workflow behaviors according to predefined criteria. With this feature you can easily create and manage the routing of documents across your environment with rule-based automation, leading to increased efficiency, accuracy, and reliability in print and workflow tasks. Output Rules enhances control over all outputs and behaviors within a print environment, like routing all specific document types to a particular printer or rerouting a job in case of a device outage.
The benefits of Output Rules include:
- Direct, granular control over where print jobs are going and how they're printed.
- Protect business-critical processes with additional redundancy, high availability, and failovers to ensure seamless operations.
- Automatic redirection during connectivity issues, printing specific job types.
- Archiving digital copies of printed forms or records for auditing purposes.
- Supports PrinterLogic Output features, including API Cloud Link and the API Print Service.

Output Rules allows you to set predefined criteria that automates document routing across your environment. This feature helps establish processes that minimize disruptions, improve output quality, and ensure compliance, all while reducing manual intervention.
You can establish print and output rules to:
- Overcome Downtime: Automatically redirect print jobs in cases of printer failure.
- Protect Sensitive Data: Prevent the printing of sensitive documents.
- Increase Efficiency: Distribute high-volume print jobs to multiple printers.
- Share Ownership: Reassign held print jobs to another user to release.
- Orchestrate Delivery: Duplicate print jobs or print to multiple locations.
