Timeout
During a job transfer from the Printer Driver to Workflow, a timeout could occur (indicated by a
log entry like “ERROR: sendBinaryContents: Could not open request. Reason: 12002”). In this
case, the timeout for the HTTP service in Workflow needs to be increased. It is recommended to
use a value of more than 10 minutes (>600 seconds).
Additionally, the timeout in the browser on the client side should be enhanced. Please see the
help pages for your browser about how to do this.
Compatibility
The OLCS components communicate with each other by using a well-defined and versioned
protocol. As long as these components use the same protocol version, the job transfer will work
even if the plugins themselves are changed. The protocol version can be found in the third part of
the version number of the Printer Driver (i.e. in version number 1.2.5.98-17, the “5” indicates
protocol version 1.5, omitting the leading 1). The Job Processor plugin shows the protocol
version explicitly in the related frame.
Any Printer Driver can communicate with any plugin, as long as this third version number part is
identical.
Get Job Data plugin
Overview
Creating an interactive process for incoming print jobs using OL Connect Send (OLCS)
requires that the relevant information about the respective job is available and can be used in
Workflow. Job Information retrieval is made easy with the Get Job Data plugin.
The plugin appears in the Plug-in Bar of Workflow under OL Connect Send.
