Abstract
A system for performing queue-based routing of print jobs in a multi-site print production environment may include a computing device having a scheduling queue and a processor, and a computer-readable storage medium in communication with the computing device. The computer-readable storage medium may include one or more programming instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to receive a plurality of print jobs from one or more client computing devices, store the received print jobs in the scheduling queue, determine that a released print job has been released by a print production environment, identify a similar print job from the received print jobs in the scheduling queue, remove the identified similar print job from the scheduling queue, and route the identified similar print job to the print production environment.
