Logical Printers Overview

A logical printer (virtual printer) is a group of saved print job settings for a
particular data format, i.e., HP-GL, Versatec, TIFF, CALS, and PS/PDF. These
saved settings, which are created using Print Services on Web, may include pen
attributes, media type, print quantity, and the other parameters that define the
print job that the logical printer will be required to perform. Logical printers are to
printing as Stored Jobs are to copying, that is, both reduce setup time and
increase efficiency by using previously saved job settings. A maximum of one
hundred logical printers can be set up within one 6030/6050 Wide Format
Printer or Copier/Printer for each supported data format.
