Definition that defines that printer and its capabilities for Connect. For example, to cater
for IPDSor AFPprinters that support Encapsulated Postscript resources included through
an Include Object (IOB) structured field. Such a print output Model would need to be
customized for you. These customized Printer Definitions will be created by Objectif Lune
Support, in conjunction with information you provide about both your printer and your
specific needs. Support will then provide you with a customized Printer Definition that
supports the desired functionality with your specific printer.
By default, Connect initially displays just a single generic PDF output option, to keep the
interface clean. But other print output types can be added to the Printer Model drop-down
list at any time via the Import Definitions button
The Import Definitions options are:
l
Import Definition: Used to add any customized or tailored Printer Definition that
Objectif Lune Inc. has prepared for you, specific to your printer.
l
Create Definition from PPD: Used to create your own customized PostScript
Printer Model through the printer manufacturer provided PostScript Printer Definition
(PPD) file. This option launches the "Dynamic PPD Options" on page767 page
later in the PrinterWizard, which allows you to setup the printer.
l
Edit available printers: Add extra Printer Definitions from the selection that
come installed with Connect.
l
Export printer definition from output preset: Use to extract a Printer
Definition from a new or modified Printer Model. This option is only available when
the Printer Model currently loaded differs from those previously saved or installed.
For more information on how to add Printer Definitions to Connect, see "Adding print
output Models to the Print Wizard" on page961.
