2.4.2Options for printing documents

In a network as well as on a stand-alone system, Xprint V7.0 provides extensive functionality for printing documents (see also the Reference Manual):

●Selecting the output device of your choice

You can print your documents on any device in the Xprint V7.0 system which you are allowed to use. You can choose either an individual device or a device group as the destination. You can also define your personal default device to which every print job is sent for which you do not explicitly specify a destination, and you can access devices which are not available in your own Xprint V7.0 domain via what are called gateways.

●Automatic adjustment of the document type

Xprint V7.0 allows you to send any document to any device. If the relevant filters are defined, the document type is automatically adjusted to the device type. This makes it possible, for example, to print normal ASCII files on PostScript printers (the filter for this conversion is supplied with Xprint V7.0).

●Printing several copies of a document

For every print job you can specify how many copies of the entire job are to be printed. Provided the printer supports this option, you can also print several copies of each individual page. In this case, each page is printed several times before the next page is printed.

●Printing parts of a document

You can also print parts of a document. Here it is possible to define the part to be printed by specifying a range of pages or strings (“print from abc to xyz”).

●Printing at specific times

For every print job, you can specify a time when it is to be printed. This allows you, for example, to schedule longer print jobs for nighttime printing. In addition, you can define that print jobs which have not been printed by a specific time are deleted automatically.

●Printing at a low priority

Xprint V7.0 allows priorities to be assigned to print jobs. These priorities are user-specific, which enables print jobs of specific users to be given preference over those of others. Less important jobs can be assigned a lower priority.
