Processing Facilities: Logical Printers
17.6. Logical Printers
17.6.1. PR0 / Logical Printer 0
Logical printer zero (PR0) has three special properties:
• It has no data-manipulation capacity. That is, it can not
do any pre- or post-job processing and cannot handle
substitution strings.
• It is always the default setting for where a given service
will send jobs.
• It always prints to the system target printer. It is only by
changing the definition of the system target printer
(
page 108
) that you can change the final destination of
jobs that go through PR0 / Logical Printer 0.
17.6.2. The Configurable Logical Printers 1-8
You can configure 8 different logical printers, known on older
print servers as PR1 to and including PR8, and on newer print
servers as Logical Printer 1 to and including Logical Printer 8.
Following are the parameters you can set for each logical
printer you want to use.
Physical printer
Each definition of a logical printer must include information on
the physical printer it will carry the job to. This will be either a
target printer or a pool. Several logical printers can point to the
same target printer or to the same pool.
In addition you can choose one or more types of data manipu-
lation (“pass-processing”) as described below:
a) Pre- and Post-Job Processing
(“String Before and String After”)
Pre- and post-job processing (“string before” and “string after”)
enable intelligent selection of advanced finishing options from
applications that do not natively support these features.
This kind of processing is especially useful in connection with
digital copiers and other types of “Multi-Function Devices” with
