Choose a workflow profile

A workflow profile determines the route of jobs when they arrive on PRISMAsync Print Server. There are several default workflow profiles to manage your work load on the control panel. You select a workflow profile on the control panel and, if required, adjust the attributes of the workflow profile. Then, this custom workflow profile is completely fitted to your workflow.

There can only be one workflow profile active at the same time. You find the attributes of the active workflow at the top of the Workflow window.
