value between 1 and 9999. Note: There is no validation to ensure the port is available. It is the user's respon-

Print Using a Windows Driver
Printing Using a Windows Driver output tasks are used to send jobs to a local or network printer without going through a Plan-
etPress Suite printer queue. Since the printer driver itself is not necessarily postscript, we cannot optimize the print file, so
using a Windows Driver Output will always generate a larger and slower print job. However, this output can work with non-
postscript printers such as HPPCLprinters.
The Print Using a Windows Driver output taskrequires a PlanetPress Production or PlanetPress Office license, otherwise this
plugin will cause a watermark.
This type of output task does not support PDFtransparency and duotone features, so you should not use it with Plan-
etPress Design documents that use those features.

l Printer queue: Select the queues to which you want to send the output. Note that this is a variable property box, so
you can use various schemes to use printer queue names that change with each job at runtime.
l Properties: Click to change the current printer queue properties. Note that PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools gen-
erate the job file and hands it over with the available print options to the Windows print driver, which takes the relay for
the actual printing part, so there is no way for your PlanetPress Suite Worflow Tool to ensure that all the settings you
make will be applied to the printed document.
l Job name: Enter the job’s file name. By default, the variable %f (Job File Name) is used. You may use a different var-
iable, but you may not use a data selection. This information may be used for the printer’s banner page.
l Job owner name: Enter the job owner name. You may use a PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools variable.
This option is not functional when natively printing PDFs (without a document).
l Documents: Select a specific PlanetPress Design document if you want all the jobs to be printed with that document.
l Natively print PDFfile: This special option can be used if your job file is a PDF. The job will .
