Preferences
In addition to the job-specific PlanetPress Image properties that you configure in the task’s
Properties dialog box, there are configurable options common to all PlanetPress Image
Outputs processed by a given computer; see "PlanetPress Image preferences" on page719.
Note that those options are specific to each PlanetPress Image installation and that they are
immediately applied.
Workflow processes in a Connect Send solution
OL Connect Send (see "OL Connect Send" on page480) needs one Workflow process to
handle the job transfer, and in licensed mode it needs at least one other process to interact with
the user. Reports about the use of OL Connect Send might be produced in yet another
Workflow process.
Each OL Connect Send solution will require the Workflow processes to be configured
differently, but certain plugins will always be part of the solution.
Job transfer process
The Workflow process that handles the job transfer starts with an HTTP Input task. The action
name of this HTTP Input task must match the last part of the URL for print job submission set in
the printer driver installer (by default: olcs_transfer).
The Job Processor plugin is the only other task in this Workflow process (see "Job Processor"
on page489).
Interactive process
When a job is received in licensed mode, an interactive process is started. This process, which
may consist of several Workflow processes, serves web pages to the customer and handles the
customer's response, changing (settings for) the print job.
A few of the key components in this process are:
l
The HTTP Server Input plugin. The interactive process start with this plugin. The action
name of this HTTP Input task must match the HTTP action for interaction given in the
Connect Send Printer Driver installer (by default: olcs_interaction). (See HTTP Server
Input.)
l
The Get Job Data plugin. Creating interactive processes for incoming print jobs requires
that the relevant information about the respective job is available and can be used in
