Printing Redirecting print output
8.5 Redirecting print output
You can redirect the hardcopy or bypass print job to one or more files. This is
done in the Configuration: Peripherals: Print Redirection menu. You can also redi-
rect the output of the Copy To Printer function using this option. This setting is
session-specific.
If you redirect the bypass output to an individual file, MT9750 creates the file
bypass. New bypass output overwrites this file. If you redirect the bypass output
to a number of files, MT9750 creates the files bypass.000 to bypass.999.
If you redirect the hardcopy output to one file, MT9750 creates a file Hard-
copy.nnn (000<=nnn<=999) for each hardcopy.
The emulation program searches for the redirection file with the highest number
and then uses the next highest number, e.g. if it finds bypass.005, it uses
bypass.006 for the next output. After the bypass.999 file, the file with the lowest
number is used. This is then overwritten in further print jobs.
When redirecting print, the data will already have been edited for the specific
printer before it is stored in the file, i. e. it is saved in a format that can be edited
by the target device. A natural prerequisite is that the local printer (and if neces-
sary the host printer) is configured appropriately.
