Print using a Windows driver
Printing Using a Windows Driver Output tasks task lets you send a job to a local or network
printer, using its own drivers. The printer does not need to be a PostScript printer.
Since the printer driver itself is not necessarily PostScript, Workflow cannot optimize the print
file, so this task will always generate a larger and slower print job. However, this Output task
can work with non-PostScript printers such as HP PCL printers.
The Print Using a Windows Driver Output task requires a PReS Workflow license, otherwise
this plugin will cause a watermark.
Note
This type of output task does not support PDF transparency and duo-tone features, so
you should not use it with PlanetPress Design documents that use those features.
Input
This task can accept either a data file with a correct emulation (see "About data emulation" on
page60), which is then merged to a PlanetPress Design document, or a PDF file which is to be
printed natively.
Processing
Either the data file is merged with the document if one is selected, or the PDF File is printed
natively through the PReS Printer driver (which prints the same as if one were to open the PDF
in a PDF reader and print it).

Printer queue: Select the queues to which you want to send the output. Note that this is a
variable property box, so you can use various schemes to use printer queue names that
change with each job at run-time.
