Adding print output Models to the Print Wizard
Connect comes with several pre-prepared print output Models. These include Advanced
Function Presentation (AFP), Intelligent Printer Data Stream (IPDS), Printer Control Language
(PCL), Portable Document Format (PDF) and PostScript (including the PostScript variants of
PPML, VIPP and VPS).
To keep the Print Wizard interface manageable only a limited range of print output Models are
available by default. Additional print output Models can be added to the list at any time, though.
They can be selected from the range of pre-prepared Models that come bundled with Connect,
or from tailored Models prepared for you by Objectif Lune, or from PostScript printer Models that
you define yourself, through importation of the PostScript Printer Definition (PPD) file.
The following topic describes how to add new Models to the Print Wizard. These Models will
always be available in the Print Wizard thereafter, unless deliberately removed.
How to add print output Models within the Print Wizard
Here is how you can add print output Models to the Print Wizard from within the Print Wizard
dialog itself.
1.
Select File > Print... from the menu. The Print dialog will be launched.
2.
Click on the Advanced button. The Print Wizard will be launched.
3.
Click the settings button at the end of the Model selection list box.
Select from one of the options:
1. Select Import Definition to add a customized Printer Definition. These are
customized files created by Objectif Lune Inc. in conjunction with you. They will
have been customized specifically for your printer(s).
2. Select Create Definition from PPD to add a customizable PostScript Printer
Model using the printer manufacturer provided PostScript Printer Definition (PPD)
file.
This launches the PPDImport Wizard. In the Wizard, do the following.
l Select the printer's PPDfile. Once selected details about that specific printer
will load in the information box, for confirmation.
NOTE:The PPDinformation extraction and processing can take some
seconds.
