Job Processor plugin
The Job Processor plugin is an output plugin that appears in the Plug-in Bar of Workflow
under OL Connect Send.
The Job Processor plugin must be added to a Workflow job transfer process that starts with an
HTTP Server Input. The Job Processor plugin can be the only other task in that process
(except when API keys are used; see "Verifying an API Key" on page63).
The action name of the HTTP Input task must match the last part of the URL for print job
submission, that has to be set in the printer driver installer (by default: olcs_transfer).
After the job is processed, the HTTP Server Input returns a reply from the Job Processor plugin
back to the OLCS Printer Driver in order to notify the user that the job has been received
successfully (or failed if an error occurred).
License mode
Each incoming print job is checked against the license to determine if it can be handled in
licensed mode or in unlicensed mode (see "License modes " on page42).
If OL Connect Send is unlicensed, the plugin stores the incoming job in the target folder using
the specified file name, but it does not save any information in the database. The end user will
receive a message in the Notification Area (also called "system tray") confirming the unlicensed
status, and the printer driver will not request another web page.
In licensed mode, the plugin will store all relevant information about each job in the OL Connect
Send database. This database is a HSQLDB and is installed automatically. Subsequent
Workflow processes can use the information in the database for additional processing (see "Get
Job Data plugin" on page53).
Whether OL Connect Send is licensed can be seen on the General tab of the properties dialog.
One job transfer process
It is strongly recommended that a single job transfer process for all Printer Drivers is created,
using the domain or machine’s or user information to divert to any follow-up processes.
This single transfer process can be set to "Self Replicating", so that parallelization is possible.
