Xlpd 5
Xlpd is a simple line printer daemon and print job management tool for Windows. It receives print jobs from remote servers using LPD protocol and sends the print jobs to a local printer. LPD has been the standard printing protocol in various operating systems including UNIX, Solaris, and Linux for many years. Since it is supported in almost every operating system, no additional setup is required on the remote side. It is a flexible printing solution that can be used as a simple LPD for a single PC or as a centralized printer server in companies to manage a large number of print jobs. Xlpd can work with Xmanager and Xshell to print the file you are working on in real time.
Xlpd 5 lets you preview the print jobs before actually printing them. PS and PCL are the most widely used printing languages supported by printers available today. Print jobs are converted to PDF format and can be opened in your favorite PDF viewer before printing.
Xlpd 5 can send notification emails to a designated user when a problem is detected. Administrator can now act quickly to fix issues and avoid delays so that the printer server can be running at an optimal condition at all times.

In today’s fast paced and ever-changing IT industry, running the most stable and secure software is a must. We regularly release updates for our software which include bug fixes, security patches, and occasionally, new features. Our new Live Update feature in Xlpd 5 checks for new updates and notifies users when one is available. Staying up to date is now faster and easier than ever.
Xlpd 5 can run either as a Windows Service or a standalone application. By running Xlpd as a Windows Service, there is no need to start Xlpd manually after restarting Windows.
If you handle hundreds of print requests, finding specific print jobs can be time consuming and frustrating. With Xlpd’s Find feature, you can find the job instantly without scrolling through the entire list of print jobs.
This feature allows users to create multiple queues on Xlpd and have different settings for each queue. Settings include printer type, formatting options, and printing actions, providing a flexible printing environment.
Xlpd provides a comprehensive log view for all print history. Every print job and error is tagged to a user and stored in a separate log for secure and easy access.
Managing print jobs are easy even for first time users with our intuitive print management menu. All print jobs that enter Xlpd are either sent to a printer directly or saved in a queue for manual print. From the print queue, users can now manage the saved print jobs by allowing it to print or cancel.
