VIPP

VIPP line mode extension (XGFNub)

The VIPP line mode extension (formerly called XGFNub) is a DocuPrint NPS (Version 1.4 and higher) extension that enables users to execute VIPP commands at the start of any VIPP document.

Multiple sets of commands may be enabled by the DocumentFormat attribute. To invoke a command set named xxx, just set the DocumentFormat attribute to “XGF/xxx.”

The following is an example of the extension used to execute the VIPP command (job1.jdt) STARTLM (command set named “job1”) at the front of the main data file:

1. Enter the following in the job 1 file/usr/xgfc/mislib/job1.ini:

%!

%custom.ini (job1.jdt) STARTLM

2.Send the main data file to DocuPrint NPS to set the DocumentFormat attribute to “XGF/job1.” Refer to your DocuPrint NPS documentation for other methods to set the DocumentFormat attribute, (such as by using a virtual printer or by the lpr -C switch).

Note: New sets of commands can be installed at any time by creating new files called /usr/xgfc/mislib/xxx.ini, where xxx is the name of the command set. The extension .ini is mandatory. Use all lower-case characters in place of xxx.
