Workflow processes in Connect Send
For help on the configuration of Workflow processes in a Connect Send solution, see Workflow
processes in a Connect Send solution.
Job Processor
The Job Processor plugin is an output plugin that appears in the Plug-in Bar of Workflow
under OL Connect Send.
Input
The Job Processor plugin must be added to a Workflow job transfer process that starts with
an HTTP Server Input. The Job Processor plugin is the only other task in that process.
The action name of the HTTP Input task must match the last part of the URL for print job
submission, set in the OLConnect Send Printer Driver installer. By default this is olcs_transfer.
After the job is processed, the HTTP Server Input returns a reply from the Job Processor
plugin back to the OLCS Printer Driver in order to notify the user that the job has been
received successfully (or failed if an error occurred).
Note
It is strongly recommended that a single job transfer process for all OL Connect Send Printer
Drivers is created, using the domain or machine’s or user information to divert to any follow-up
processes.
This single transfer process can be set to "Self Replicating", so that parallelization is possible.
Processing
The Job Processor plugin receives a compressed PostScript file sent by the OL Connect Send
Printer Driver and communicates with the Printer Driver to ensure that all data has been
received correctly. If the Printer Driver has split the job into multiple chunks, the plugin
combines the chunks into one PostScript file.
License mode
Each incoming print job is checked against the license to determine if it can be handled in
licensed mode or in unlicensed mode.
