Configuring Xprint V7.0

Administering filters

6.10.2 Deleting filters

With the xpdel -fltcommand you can delete from the Xprint V7.0 system any filter that you administer.

i

A filter referenced by another object (e.g. a fast filter assigned to an existing printer) cannot be deleted.

Check whether the filter to be deleted is still referenced by other objects: xpshow -flt [selection]filter_name -diR

For filter_name you specify the name of exactly one filter you want to delete. If you want to want to delete several filters, you must repeat this command for each one.

For selection you can either specify a list of form names, or you can define a list of selection criteria with the -scl“selection_criteria_list” option (see section “Selection criteria list” on page 266 in the Appendix) according to which the forms to be deleted are selected.

If references to the filter are displayed, you must remove these by modifying the displayed objects accordingly.

Enter the following command: xpdel -flt selection

For selection you can either specify a list of the filters to be deleted, or you can use the -scl“selection_criteria_list” option (see section “Selection criteria list” on page 266 in the Appendix) to define a list of criteria according to which the filters to be deleted are selected.

Examples

To delete the filter LandA2 from the system: xpdel -flt LandA2

To delete all filters with the input data format POSTSCRIPT. xpdel -flt -scl "-it POSTSCRIPT"
