ROOM Hotfolder conflict

ROOM Hotfolder conflict

If you set a ROOM connection for your printer, you should not use a folder that is set as a Hotfolder of a queue (each queue has a Hotfolder set into queue settings > Workflow).

If the ROOM queue and a Hotfolder are pointing to the same directory/folder then all the output of the RIP will be considered as input again and processed over and over again.
