Table 2-15 Parameters for %EtherTalk% and %EtherTalk_Pending%
Key Type Default Description
DelayedOutputClose boolean false
Determines how the output channel
is managed after a job completes
execution.
When the value of this parameter is
set to true, an end of file indicator is
not sent until all pages of a job have
been printed. The network channel
remains open. Messages such as
printer error messages are sent to the
channel if it is either the output
channel for the job executing, or the
output channel for jobs that have
finished executing but have not
finished printing.
Enabled boolean true Indicates whether data arriving at
the printer should be scheduled for
processing. If the value of this
parameter is true, data is processed.
If the value is false, data is not
processed.
EthernetAddress string Hardware
dependent
A unique 17-character string that
represents the Ethernet address of
the printer.
EtherTalkType string (LaserWriter)
Indicates the type piece of the
EtherTalk entity name. The entity
name consists of three pieces: zone,
type, and object, each of which is a
string of 32 or fewer non-null
characters.
Setting the EtherTalkType string
will also set the LocalTalkType
parameter within the %LocalTalk%
parameter set to the same value.
The appletalktype compatability
operator will also reflect the
same value.
EtherTalkZone string (*) Indicates the zone piece of the
EtherTalk entity name.
Filtering name /None Indicates whether the input data
stream needs further filtering before
it can be correctly interpreted as a
page description language.
