Job Parameters; Using Novell Forms To Specify Virtual Printers - Xerox DocuPrint 100 Installation Planning Manual

DocuPrint NPS/IPS on a Novell network

Job parameters

Using Novell forms to specify virtual printers

D-4
The following job parameters are affected when the DocuPrint
NPS/IPS is configured as a PSERVER:
• Job description is used as the document name
• Copies is used to set the number of copies
• Sender name is set from the user name
• Message is sent to the user when the job finishes printing or
is canceled, if you set the Notify flag
• ElideHeaders is set to TRUE if you disable banner
• Form name is used to specify the virtual printer.
Novell allows the user to specify a form that has a name,
number, length and width.
DocuPrint NPS/IPS uses Novell form names to specify virtual
printers.
• If a Novell user wishes to access a given virtual printer, a
form with the same name as the virtual printer must be
defined by the NetWare administrator. The user must specify
that form for the job.
• The Novell system administrator must create form names to
match the names of DocuPrint NPS/IPS virtual printers.
• The form name can have a maximum of twelve characters,
and the first character must be alphabetic.
If a form name is not used, a virtual printer with the same name
as the queue is used.
Forms are defined on the Novell server using the Novell
PRINTDEF program. (Use a prefix such as "DP" to distinguish
them from other form names.)
NOTE: DocuPrint NPS/IPS is not using a form in the Novell
sense. It reads the name field of the form specified, and
interprets it as a DocuPrint virtual printer. None of the form
attributes other than name is read.
