or a Printer Centric stream (data file +trigger).
If the data file is any file and the Pass-through option is selected, the file is sent as-is to the
selected printer queue. Whether the queue will properly output depends on the capabilities of
the queue and its target. For example, sending a JPGfile in pass-through to an FTPor Send to
Folder output will simply place the file in the destination. Sending this same file to an LPRor
WinQueue output will produce no output as these queues expect valid PostScript.
Properties
General tab
l Queues: Select the queues to which you want to send the output.
l Documents: Select None if you want the data to print as is. Select a specific PlanetPress
Design document if you want all the jobs to be printed with that document. To use a
document chosen at run-time for each job, enter a dynamic document name using a
combination of text, variables and data selections. To enable the dynamic document
name box, click inside it. To disable it, press Enter. Note that in the later case, you must
be certain that the documents that will be chosen at run-time will in fact be available
locally or at all the selected printer. Note that PlanetPress Workflow will not specify a
given document version number, so the latest version will be used by default. To specify a
given document version number, you can use an Add Document action task instead of a
Printer Queue output, and then use an Add / Remove Text action task to add a version
number in the document trigger (for more information, refer to the Control Versions of a
Document section of the PlanetPress Design User Guide).
Advanced tab
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 printer queues
were selected.)
l
No balancing: No load balancing means that all the selected printer queues get
everything.
