Sample project
The Ad Hoc Mail Consolidation sample project may help you understand the Workflow
processes for OL Connect Send and configure your own.
l
Watch the sample in action on demo.objectiflune.com. Under Ad Hoc Mail
Consolidation, click Demo and follow the instructions. (If you have already installed the
printer driver, you don't have to do that again.) Add a Connect Send printer with the given
settings and print the provided Word file to that printer. The printer will trigger an
interactive process on demo.objectiflune.com.

Job transfer process
The Workflow process that handles the job transfer is small and straightforward. It starts with
an HTTP Input task. The action name of this HTTP Input task must match the last part of the
URL for print job submission, set in the printer driver installer (by default: olcs_transfer). The
Job Processor plugin is the only other task in this Workflow process.
For more information about the configuration of this process, see "Job Processor plugin" on
page39.
Interactive process
The core business of the interaction process(es) is: serving web pages to the customer and
handling the customer's response, which comes down to changing (the settings for) the print
job that has been received from that customer. As it has to be tailored to the situation in which it
is used, several Workflow processes may be needed and they may be long and complex. It is
therefore impossible to give a detailed instruction on how to configure the interactive process
(es).
It is however possible to name a few of the key components in such a process.
l
Just as the job transfer process, the interactive process start with an HTTP Server Input
plugin. The action name of this HTTP Input task must match the HTTP action for
interaction given in the printer driver installer (by default: olcs_interaction). (For
information about this plugin, see the Workflow Help: HTTP Server Input.)
l Creating interactive processes for incoming print jobs using OL Connect Send requires
that the relevant information about the respective job is available and can be used in
