Services in “Input Control”: Common Feature: How to Direct Output

22. Services in “Input Control”

This chapter covers configurations for Raw Socket, LPR, FTP
Print, IPP, and ThinPrint.

22.1.

Common Feature: How to Direct Output

Each service you configure must include a setting for how to
direct output to a physical “Target Printer”. On print servers
running release level 2111 or higher, the parameter is called
“Output to”. On older releases the parameter is called “Use
Logical Printer”.

Basics

The default setting is always “Logical Printer 0" which will print
to the

“System Target Printer” [page 108]

. If you are not using

the Network Destination Option (NDO), the system target
printer will always be the local printer where the print server is
attached. For many purposes, you can just leave the output
setting at the default value of Logical Printer 0.

Advanced

Settings

The other possible settings are Logical Printer 1 - Logical
Printer 8, inclusive. If you choose one of them, be sure that any
pre-processing, post-processing or string substitution are cor-
rect for the jobs you will be sending with this protocol and that
the output from the logical printer will end up on the desired tar-
get printer.

NDO

NDO users who want to have output directed to a physical
printer without engaging the logical layer have five additional
choices: Local Printer, and Network Destination 1 - Network
Destination 4, inclusive.

ThinPrint

Please see the expanded information (

page 166

) on how to

direct ThinPrint output to different printers.
