LPR settings tab (Destination Bulk Configuration)
Use this tab to create multiple LPR destinations at once. Documents routed to this destination will be sent to the server and queue specified.
You can configure a default value and a dynamic override for most options. Default values are used to manage the documents as they are being sent to the destination. You can choose to dynamically override the default values using document properties and functions.
To | Do this |
---|---|
Insert document properties | Right-click in the desired override box, and click Insert Document Property. This displays a menu listing all of the available properties. You can select a property from the list or type the property name. If a property is selected and it contains a value, that value is processed instead of the default value. |
Insert functions | Right-click in the box, click Insert Function, and choose the appropriate function. Review the Using Output Manager functions help topic for information on configuring functions. |
Click in table cells to configure values for a destination.
Column | Description |
---|---|
Name |
Specifies the name of the LPR destination. |
Print Command |
Specifies the LPR print command. You can choose one of the following.
|
Send copies as separate transmissions |
Select this option to send documents to the destination multiple times (based on the copy count property of the document). When printing a duplex document, select this option if you want each document to print on its own sheets of paper. If not selected, a duplexed document that has odd number of pages will have the first page of its second copy print on the back of the last page of its first copy. When a printer is configured to use a separator page, select this option to allow the separator page to be inserted by the printer. If not selected, only the first copy would have a separator page. A separator page would not appear between each of the copies. |
Control File First |
Sends the control file before the data files. Once the control file has been received, the data files can be printed as they arrive. This is the default configuration. |
Server |
Specifies the IP address or equivalent host name of the print server where documents will be sent. IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are supported. |
Port |
Specifies the port number for this LPR server. The default value is 515. |
Queue |
Specifies the name of the print queue on the LPD server. |
Retry On Timeout |
Specifies if you want to retry printing to this destination if a timeout occurs. |
Banner Class (-C) |
Specifies the class name to be printed on the banner page. To print the banner page, the -L command must be used. |
Banner Job Name (-J) |
Specifies the job name to be printed on the banner page. To print the banner page, the -L command must be used. |
Banner User (-L) |
Causes the banner page to be printed. The user name can be omitted. The banner class (-C) and banner job name (-J) commands must precede this command in the control file to be effective. |
Mail User (-M) |
Sends mail to the specified mailbox (example, mailbox@hostname) upon completion of the print job. |
User (-P) |
Specifies the user identification of the entity requesting the printing job. This must be included in the control file. |
Title (-T) |
Provides a title for a file that is to be printed with the "p" command code. It is ignored by all other printing commands. |
