l
Copies: Enter the number of copies to be printed outputs. Since this is a variable property
box, you may enter a fixed value or use a data selection. Note that load balancing options
have an impact on how copies are printed as well as on the total number of printed
copies.
l
Load balancing group (Options from this group are only valid if multiple Workflow printer
queues were selected.)
l
No balancing: No load balancing means that all the selected Workflow printer
queues get everything.
l
Split job: Split job means that jobs will be split according to the criteria set in the
Page delimiter group (see below) and that an equal share of the job file will be sent
to each one of the selected Workflow printer queues. For a hundred page job, for
example, if two queues were selected, each one will get 50 pages.
l
Queue balancing: Queue balancing means that jobs will be split according to the
criteria set in the Page delimiter group (see below) and that a share of the job file
corresponding to each printers capacity (as set in the PlanetPress Workflow
Printer Queue Options dialog box—See "Print using a Windows driver" on
page545) will be sent to each one of the selected Workflow printer queues. If two
queues were selected, the first one sending jobs to a printer that prints 500 pages a
minute, and the second one sending jobs to a smaller printer printing 50 pages a
minute, the first queue will receive roughly ten times more pages than the second
one.
l
Round robin: Round robin means that complete jobs will be sent in turn to each
one of the selected Workflow printer queues. For example, Queue_1 will get the first
job, Queue_2 will get the second job, and so forth.
l
Page delimiter group: These options are enabled when you choose Split job or Queue
balancing load balancing options. They are used to determine how each job is to be split
before being sent to the Workflow printer queues.
l
Form feed: Cuts the job file at every form feed character.
l
Lines per page: Cuts the job file after the specified number of lines.
l
Keyword: Cuts the job file after each occurrence of the specified keyword (string of
characters).
