Implement a Trigger under Windows with TCP/IP
These instructions use a separator page which adds the trigger to any job going through a specific text-only printer queue.
This is useful in the case of legacy software or systems that can only print through text-based printers and where no control is
possible over the contents of the job file.
Step 1 - Create a printer queue
Windows 2000/XP/2003
1. Click Start, then Printers and Faxes. Alternatively, this location can be found in the Control Panel.
2. Double-click on Add Printer. Click Next on the first page of the Add Printer Wizard.
3. Keep the Local printer attached to this computer option but uncheck the automatically detect and install
my Plug and Play printer box, then click Next.
4. Select Create a new port , then select the StandardTCP/IP Port option. Click Next.
5. Click Next in the new wizard dialog.
6. Type in the printer's IPaddress or network name (for example, 192.168.100.213 or 10.0.0.163) then click Next (the
Port Name will fill itself).
7. Leave the Device Type to Generic Network Card, then click Next and Finish.
8. Select the Generic manufacturer and the Generic / Text Only printer.
9. Enter a printer name. This printer can be local only or shared on a network and will be unique to the document it
triggers.
10. If the printer is to be shared on the network, enter a Share name, then click Next.
11. Select whether you want to print a test page, then click Next, then Finish.
