Section 13 Using Logical Printers
Using Logical Printers to Customize your Printing
The AXIS 5470e/570/670e has a powerful facility for altering the
print data. This means that your desired print format can be realized
on any type of printer. The following actions can be invoked from the
AXIS 5470e/570/670e:
• The character set can be changed to suit the printer
• Strings can be added before and after the print data
• Strings within the print data can be substituted
• ASCII to PostScript conversion
• Redirection of print data to another printer if the printer is busy
(AXIS 570/670e)
• Hex Dump mode to assist with printing problems
• Digital Copier support
(AXIS 5470e Copier model and AXIS 670e).
Logical Printer
Settings
If any of these actions are required, a Logical Printer is used to change
the print data before being sent to the printer port. There are eight
logical printers (PR1-PR8) that can be set up to filter the print data.
Configuring The
Logical Printer
Each logical printer can be set up using any standard Web browser or
by directly editing the config file.
To configure the logical printers from the web interface, click admin
and click the Logical Printer Settings button. Select the logical printer
you wish to configure by clicking one of the tabs (PR1 - PR8). The
available options will appear in these pages, depending on which print
server model you have connected.
