4) - If this Pcl is non PJL one :
o Associate the sequences of the begin of job to the "boprt" capability. If you want
the sequences to be sent before each document, associate it to "bodoc"
capability.
o Associate the sequences of the end of job to the "eoprt" capability. If you want
the sequences to be sent after each document, associate it to "eodoc" capability.
- If this Pcl is a PJL one:
o pboj match to boprt.
o pbod match to bodoc.
o peoj match to eoprt.
o peod match to eodoc.
5) Save the file.
6) Add the new Pcl in the Xprint Database:
xpadd -pcl <pcl-name> -fi xpterm
7) Create the device :
xpadd -dev <new-printer> -pc <pcl-name>
A.10 How to attribute a TCP/IP address to a print server ? (ex: Axis box)
You have to use the classic tcp "arp" command that matches an IP address to a MAC address.
Syntax:
"arp -s "IP_adress" "MAC_adress"
Afterwards, perform the "ping IP_adress" command to check the result.
A.11 How to change the name of a host defined within an Xprint domain ?
Xprint provides a tool called "xppatch" that can adapt the configuration and the job description files in order to use
a new system name.
By default, this tool only works for a local Xprint configuration (i.e. only one host defined in the database at a
time), but there is a hidden option that allows you to run it in a net configuration.
This option is "- sn".
Please refer to the reference guide for a complete description of the "xppatch" command.
If used in a domain, be aware that this command has to be used carefully to avoid database conflicts.
Before using it, make sure that:
• all the hosts of the domain are stopped by the rule book
•
the first restarted host must be the one on which the xppatch command was used
Important remark: Since the version 6.0A, Xprint supports a new feature: host name aliasing.
In most cases, this is a better solution than former xppatch tool.
Please refer to the reference guide for the host name aliasing.
