Working with Print Device Definitions
NOTE: Because NetWare can place the functions only at the beginning or end of a print job,
the best functions to use are those that affect the entire document (such as Condensed
or Landscape).
Importing Print Device Definitions
Use the following steps to import a print device definition from a .PDF file
into the print device database.
Procedure
1 Log in as user Admin or equivalent at a workstation and type the following at the
command line:
PRINTDEF <Enter>
The “Available Options” menu appears.
2 Select “Print Devices.”
3 Select “Import Print Device” from the “Print Device Options” menu.
The Source Directory appears with the default SYS:PUBLIC if PRINTDEF was
started from a network drive.
4 Press <Enter>.
The “Available .PDFs” window appears.
5 Select the .PDF file you want to add to your database from the “Available .PDFs”
list.
If you try to import a print device definition that has the same name as an
existing print device definition, the “New Device Name” entry box appears,
prompting you to rename the new definition. Type the revised name and press
<Enter>.
The new print device definition is added to the print device definition database.
You are returned to the “Print Device Options” menu.
