Main Printing Functions

This section describes the main printing functions which are available with the
6030/6050 Wide Format Printer and Copier/Printer.
Logical Printers (6030/6050 only)
A logical (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 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.
Logical printer names are assigned based on the following. It is not possible to
change these names.
1st to 3rd digits
4th to 5th digits (number) Two-digit number from 00 to 99
6th digit (format)
The sixth digit can be omitted when Ethernet multi-data format functions are in
use. When this digit is omitted, the relevant software to be started will be
selected according to the extension log of the transmitted data file.
If a logical printer is selected that has a different sixth digit than the format of the
print file, the file may be forwarded to a logical printer that has the same
extension as the transmitted file.
