  • Page 31: Chapter 2. Planning For Configuration

    Chapter 2. Planning for configuration This chapter describes destination configuration models that might be important to you as you design your InfoPrint Manager environment. Understanding destination configuration models Destination configuration models show the relationships among logical destinations, job- and document-attribute defaults, queues, and actual destinations. A default InfoPrint Manager destination configuration has a one-to-one relationship between a logical destination and an actual destination, and provides minimal job- and document-attribute default settings.

Job A (submitted to an actual destination) prints on that actual destination. Job B (submitted to the logical destination) prints on the first actual destination that can support it. This is a very flexible model that lets you enjoy the benefits of printer pooling, while retaining complete control over where certain jobs print.

  • Page 33: The Desktop Model

    statement jobs might use different sets of job- and document-attribute defaults, such as the form they print on or the overlay they require. The pool model allows these different jobs to be submitted to a single logical destination. It then automatically routes each job to the first available printer capable of processing it.

For example, you can configure one logical destination to print on the pink paper stored in tray 2 and another logical destination to print duplex from tray 1 with an overlay.

  • Page 35: Chapter 3. Planning To Print With Host Systems

    Chapter 3. Planning to print with host systems InfoPrint Manager provides several options for printing to or from host systems, depending on how much functions you need and where you want to control printing from (the host system or InfoPrint Manager). All of the options let you share printers between host and LAN applications, though some require more configuration than others.

    administrator decides to use DPF to download the IPDS print jobs and resources used in them to InfoPrint Manager, where they are held until the print operators arrive. Because the resources used need to be kept secure (signatures), Save resources is turned off at the host receiver. Resources are deleted after the jobs print.

  • Page 39: Managing Resources With Dpf

    Managing resources with DPF When you submit a print job using DPF, both the job files and the required IPDS resources are sent to your InfoPrint Manager system. However, you can reduce traffic on your network by using the Save resources function of the DPF host receivers.

    Chapter 5. Planning to share printers In many environments, sharing printers lets you get the most benefit from your printers. One of the primary benefits of using InfoPrint Manager is the ability to have various host and client systems share printing resources at a variety of levels. The level of sharing used depends on the requirements of the environment.
