Conﬁguring Spoolers, Queues, and Logical Printers

Creating and Conﬁguring Initial-Value-Job and Initial-Value-Document

Objects

NOTE You do not have to specify a class (or use the -c ﬂag) with the pdset

command when performing conﬁguration tasks for logical printers.

printer is the default class for the pdset command.

If the logical printer with which you want to associate the initial value

object is enabled, you must disable it with the pddisable command to

set the association.

The initial-value-job object or initial-value-document object must exist

before you can enable the logical printer.

The attribute values of the initial-value-job object or

initial-value-document object must be supported by the logical printer

you associate with the object. For example, if an initial-value-document

object speciﬁes a value of landscape for the content-orientation

attribute, then either landscape must be one of the values for the

content-orientations-supported logical printer attribute or the

value for content-orientations-supported must be blank, specifying

no restrictions.

If the initial value object does not exist or the values of an initial value

object are not supported, the request to enable the logical printer will fail

and you will receive an error message.
