It is heavily recommended that this setting be left as Auto, as PReS Classic
licenses being assigned to different PRNx instances is extremely rare.

Time-out: The time in seconds that the Connect Workflow waits for a response from the
PReS Print Control to make sure it is running. If Connect Workflow does not receive a
response in the allotted time it will terminate the Print Control and continue to the next
step in the workflow.
PrintShop Mail
Once you have imported PrintShop Mail documents to your PlanetPress Workflow workstation
(see "Importing PrintShop Mail documents" on page50), you can use PrintShop Mail action
tasks to output the job file with a selected PrintShop Mail document. PrintShop Mail action
tasks let you print as well as generate PostScript or PDF files. The PrintShop Mail and
PrintShop Mail 7 action tasks are essentially the same. The only differences are:
l The version supported: PrintShop Mail only supports 6.1 documents, while PrintShop
Mail 7 supports 7.0, 7.1 and 7.2 documents.
l PrintShop Mail 7 can output PDF/VT and PPML/VDX.
Limitations
In order for the PrintShop Mail tasks to be functional, some pre-requisites must be met:
l PrintShop Mail version 6.1 or higher must be installed on the same system, and an
activated PrintShop Mail production dongle must be plugged in to the system.
l You must have at least one printer using a PostScript driver on your system in order to
produce PDF output. It is highly recommended that a PostScript printer be set as the
default system printer in order to act as a fallback if the selected printer is unreachable.
l PlanetPress Workflow Service must be configured with a user name and password that
have access to the required printer(s). The Local System Account setting will not work.
Input
A data file compatible with a PrintShop Mail Document. Metadata is ignored by this task.
