Greetings everyone. I am a brand new user and am very interested in the Hot Folder feature of QImage. The tutorial shows that as long as the printer is set up I just need to set a hot folder location and images I drop into the print size i need should just queue up...correct? When I drop my images into the 8X10 for instance they just stay there. Nothing jumps to the queue or the processed folder. Am I missing a rudimentary setup option? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm running on Windows 7 Pro with the latest version of Image Ultimate.

After yun drop the images into the 8 x 10 Hotfolder, you then click on the folder marked Actions
You are done.
All you do now is open Qimage and turn on the hot folder unless it's already on.
The button for that is The red flame button . See screen snap attached. Second button from the right.
The images will appear in the queue like magic.

Thanks again for the help. I think my issue was the actual print size of an 8X10 is 7.9X9.9 on my printer. I'm running an Epson SureLab. Once I made a layout at that size then a hot folder for it generated and then it worked. I'm sure I will have many more questions as I figure this software out for my workflow.
