Intermate100 and Intermate101 Print Server Administration Manual 127
Processing Facilities: Data Manipulation in the Logical Printer Layer
17.7. Data Manipulation in the Logical Printer Layer
Note:
Skip Section 17.7 if you will not be working with data
manipulation in the logical printer layer.
17.7.1. Examples of Logical Printer Definitions
If you work in a complex environment where you really want to
get the most of each multi-protocol print server, it would be a
good idea to make a table showing the kinds of capabilities you
want to use in each logical printer.
Figure 8.
is an example of how to do this. It shows a set of defi-
nitions for logical printers, using every day descriptions instead
of a printer control language. Even if you only need a few logi-
cal printers, it can be inspiring to consider the examples of how
the different processing capabilities can be combined. There
are two assumptions made in this example:
a Sixteen sets of input and output strings have
been (or will be) defined on the [Substitution
Strings] page (refer to the chapter on
“[Substitution Strings]” [page 157]
when you
need to do an actual configuration).
Each “substitution string” has a number. To tell
a logical printer that it should use a substitution
string, you list the number in the logical printer
definition, just as it is shown on the table below.
b The Network Destination Option (NDO) is not
enabled, so the only target printer available is
“local”. Later in this chapter we will see what
happens when network printers are added.
