DICOMJet is a software solution allowing to turn any Windows-based Personal Computer with a connected printer into a DICOM Print Server. DICOMJet allows connecting the PC to a DICOM network and handling the print requests coming from DICOM-compliant devices: it acts as a "translator" between the DICOM world and the Windows printers' world, by forwarding to these printers the printing requests coming from digital modalities, appropriately converted.

DICOMJet allows obtaining a low-cost DICOM printing solution, exploiting common hardware devices such as a Personal Computer and Windows-compatible printer. In particular, today's ink-jet, laser or solid-ink printers offer interesting possibilities: they are able to print high quality images on transparent films (in addition to several types of paper) that look very similar to the traditional radiographic film.
DICOMJet also allows saving the images transferred through the DICOM Print request to the the local disks of the PC where the software is running, in BMP, JPEG, TIFF or PNG format.

DICOMJet is able to handle several printers for each PC, both local and remote. It offers various configuration possibilities for forwarding the print jobs to the connected printers: for instance, it is possible to setup rules to determine the destination printer based on the medium type requested by the DICOM modality. If several printers are available and match the rules set, a sophisticated load balancing algorithm is used in order to distribute the workload.
DICOMJet is able to accept and manage up to 10 concurrent DICOM associations, thus enabling to serve the printing requests of a medium-sized DICOM network with just one PC and one or more Windows printers.
DICOMJet is now able to run both as a normal Windows user application and as a Windows service, enabling a completely unattended operational mode.
