l
Round robin: Round robin means that complete jobs will be sent in turn to each one of the
selected printer queues. For example, Queue_1 will get the first job, Queue_2 will get the second
job, and so forth.
l
Page delimiter group:These options are enabled when you choose Split job or Queue balancing
load balancing options. They are used to determine how each job is to be split before being sent to the
printer queues.
l
Form feed: Cuts the job file at every form feed character.
l
Lines per page: Cuts the job file after the specified number of lines.
l
Keyword: Cuts the job file after each occurrence of the specified keyword (string of characters).
l Custom Trigger: Enter the code of the trigger that will be sent with the data to the selected printer
queues. Note that this box is only enabled if None was selected in the General tab.
l Add job information to the document:Includes the current JobInfos to the job output. This option is
only available if a document was selected in the General tab.
l Use job name as Title:Uses the Job Name set in the Printer Queue's General tab, as the job's title,
set as %%Title in the postscript's job.
On Error Tab
The On Error tab is common to all tasks. Details can be found in the" Task Properties Dialog" on page663.
By default, any action task, branch, splitter or condition that generates an error will simply be ignored, and
the task just under it (not within a branch)will be given control of the job file without any modification. Any
initial input task that generates an error will stop the process from running as a whole, and output tasks will
not generate output. The On Error tab can be used to overwrite the default behaviors.
l Send to Process: Check this option to send the job file to an error management process.
l
Error Process drop-down:Enabled only when the Send to Process option is checked. Lists any
process of which the initial input task is the Input Error Bin task.
l Action Group:This group is disabled in the initial input tasks and defaults to Stop Process. In all
other tasks where the On Error tab is present, the following options are available:
l Ignore:The task is ignored as if it did not exist, and the job file is passed on to the next task in
the process.
l Stop Branch:If the task is in a branch of the process, the branch is stopped and the job file is
returned to the process after the branch. The branch will not produce any output.
