IBM Infoprint Manager for Windows Infoprint Select README 1) Infoprint Select README Infoprint Select allows you to submit jobs to Infoprint Manager from word processors, spreadsheets, and other desktop applications. It also provides you with a powerful command line that you can use to interface more directly with Infoprint Manager and to specify AFP(TM) print options. This readme file contains procedures for installing and configuring Infoprint Select on the Windows platform. The following topics are covered: * 1a, "Installing Infoprint Select" * 1b, "Configuring your Infoprint Manager server to work with Infoprint Select" * 1c, "Installing DCE support for Infoprint Select with an Infoprint Manager for AIX DCE server" * 1d, "Creating Infoprint Select printers" * 1e, "Commands you can use with Select" 1a) Installing Infoprint Select Important Note: If you plan to install one or both of the Infoprint Manager GUIs as well as Infoprint Select, be sure to install the GUI(s) first. Follow these steps to install Infoprint Select on a Windows system from the Infoprint Manager Common Clients,LCD4-1917, CD-ROM: Note: If you plan to use Infoprint Select to submit print jobs to an Infoprint Manager for AIX server that uses the IBM Distributed Computing Environment (DCE) for AIX, refer to 1c, "Installing DCE support for Infoprint Select with an Infoprint Manager for AIX DCE server" before you continue with the installation. 1. Insert the Infoprint Manager Common Clients CD-ROM into the drive. 2. The install program will start automatically. 3. Select the Install Products button, and then select the Infoprint Select button. 4. Follow the instructions on the installation screens to install the program. 5. Choose the type of install based upon your installation: * A typical install if you only wish to use the pdls, pdpr, and pdq commands, or if you are using non-DCE Infoprint servers. * A custom install if you are running an Infoprint DCE server and want to print to a restricted printer or use more than the pdpr, pdls, and pdq Infoprint commands. 1b) Configuring your Infoprint Manager server to work with Infoprint Select In order for Infoprint Select to submit print, fax, or email jobs to Infoprint Manager properly, you must configure each Infoprint Manager logical destination to accept jobs from Infoprint Select. Use the Infoprint Manager Administration GUI as described in the following procedure to configure each logical destination correctly. If you want to use the command line instead of the GUI, use the pdset command to set the client-driver-names attribute. Note: It is highly recommended that users who submit jobs with Infoprint Select send them to Infoprint logical destinations, not to Infoprint actual destinations. 1. Log on to a system that has the Infoprint Manager Administration GUI installed on it as a user with administrator privileges. Note: To be able to complete this procedure, you must have the authority to use the pdenable, pddisable, and pdset commands. If you do not have that authority, your user id must be added to the access control lists (ACLs) on your Infoprint Manager server. Information about security and how users can be authorized to Infoprint Manager is found in the topics "Managing Infoprint security with DCE" and "Managing non-DCE security for Infoprint Manager for AIX" in the IBM Infoprint Manager for AIX: Procedures manual. 2. Launch the Infoprint Manager Administration GUI. 3. Select one of the logical destinations that will receive print jobs from Infoprint Select by clicking on it once. 4. On the menu bar, click Logical and select Properties. 5. In the Properties notebook, click the Drivers tab. Note: If you do not see the Drivers tab, click Show more, then click the Drivers tab. 6. In the New value field next to Windows client drivers, type the name of one of the print drivers that users will use to submit jobs in conjunction with Infoprint Select. 7. Click Add >>. 8. Repeat from 6 for all of the drivers that users will use with Infoprint Select. 9. Click OK. 1b.i) Configuring for Fax and Email jobs with Select If your logical destination is configured to send jobs to either a fax or an email DSS, you also need to set the logical destination's destination-support-systemattribute is set to either fax or email, whichever is appropriate. You can modify this value through the pdset command. For example, the following sets a DSS of fax for the logical destination fax1-ld. pdset -x "destination-support-system=fax" fax1-ld 1b.ii) Configuring for receiving notifications with Select on Windows When you submit a print job using Infoprint Select, a default notification profile is sent with the job. That notification profile sets the delivery method to either email (if you have the Select message window running) or to none (if you don't have it running). To use the email delivery method, you must set the smtp-server-host attribute on your Infoprint Manager server to the IP address or DNS hostname of the system that your SMTP mail server runs on. Refer to Infoprint Manager: Procedures for instructions on setting up and managing notifications for Select. 1c) Installing DCE support for Infoprint Select with an Infoprint Manager for AIX DCE server If you have IBM Distributed Computing Environment (DCE) installed on your computer at version 2.0 or later and your Infoprint AIX server was installed using the Advanced Security/Scalability (DCE) feature, you may choose to install DCE Support through the Custom installation method on InstallShield. DCE Support will allow you to use more than the pdpr, pdls, and pdq Infoprint Manager commands when communicating with Infoprint Manager servers that require DCE authorization. In addition, the Infoprint Manager administrator may restrict access to a printer to users who are logged into DCE with a particular DCE user ID or DCE group ID so you would not be able to submit jobs without the DCE support. Before you can use the extra commands or print to a restricted printer, you must do the following during the install process: 1. Select Custom on the Setup Type window. 2. Ensure that both Program Files and DCE support are selected on the next window. 3. Proceed with the install instructions. 4. Log into DCE as an authorized user or member of an authorized group. 1d) Creating Infoprint Select printers This section describes how to configure Infoprint Select clients to allow print job submission from Windows applications to destinations managed by an Infoprint Manager server. This section includes the following topics: * 1d.ii, "Creating Infoprint Select printers on Windows 98 systems" * "Adding your first Infoprint Select printer on Windows 98 systems" * "Adding an additional Infoprint Select printer on Windows 98 systems" * 1d.iii, "Creating Infoprint Select printers on Windows ME systems" * "Adding your first Infoprint Select printer on Windows ME systems" * "Adding an additional Infoprint Select printer on Windows ME systems" * 1d.iv, "Creating Infoprint Select printers on Windows NT systems" * "Adding your first Infoprint Select printer on Windows NT systems" * "Adding an additional Infoprint Select printer on Windows NT systems" * 1d.v, "Creating Infoprint Select printers on Windows 2000 systems" * "Adding your first Infoprint Select printer on Windows 2000 systems" * "Adding an additional Infoprint Select printer on Windows 2000 systems" * 1d.vi, "Creating Infoprint Select printers on Windows XP systems" * "Adding your first Infoprint Select printer on Windows XP systems" * "Adding an additional Infoprint Select printer on Windows XP systems" 1d.i) Collecting required information Before you can print to an Infoprint Manager destination from a Windows application, you must add an Infoprint Select printer to your Windows environment. Collect the following information before you begin: * The host name or IP address of the Infoprint Manager server * The port number that the Infoprint Manager server uses to communicate with client systems The default is 6874. You can find this port number in the Service Configuration dialog in the Management Console. * The names of logical destinations to use * The names of the drivers to associate with each logical destination * Where the driver files are located (on a CD-ROM, on a network server, or on your local system) Choosing the Right PPD If you plan to use Infoprint Select to print PostScript jobs to an AIX DSS (Infoprint Manager for AIX only), BSD DSS, or Passthrough DSS (Infoprint Manager for Windows only) printer, be sure to use the PostScript printer driver that came with your printer when you create an Infoprint Select printer on your desktop. These drivers include PostScript Printer Definitions (PPDs) that are specific to your printer. If you submit jobs to either the AIX, BSD, or Passthrough DSS printers, do not use the printer drivers and PPDs that are provided with Infoprint Select. They contain specific actual destination attributes that apply only to PSF DSS printers. Drivers and Finishing The automatic data stream transforms that PSF printers use do not support finishing (stapling). As a result, if you plan to use Infoprint Select to submit PCL or PostScript jobs to a PSF printer (destination), you cannot specify finishing options when you submit a job, even if the print driver you use supports those options. It is recommended that you either use a different method to submit those print jobs, or that you submit them to an Infoprint printer that does not transform the data stream (such as a Passthrough printer on Infoprint Manager for Windows or an AIX printer on Infoprint Manager for AIX). If you cannot use a different submission method and cannot submit your jobs to a different type of Infoprint printer, the only way to request finishing options on PCL and PostScript jobs submitted to a PSF destination is to use a default job. A default job is a list of attributes that is applied to every job that a particular logical destination receives. You can use the Infoprint Manager Administration GUI to modify the default job for the logical destination that Infoprint Select sends jobs to so that it requests the appropriate finishing options. However, this method is not recommended for two reasons: 1. Every job that you send to that logical destination will be finished the same way. For example, if you set the Finishing options attribute of the default job to staple-top-left, every job that is submitted to that printer will be stapled, even if the job is only one page long. 2. A logical destination can only have one default job, and a default job can only have one finishing option set. If you want to use different finishing options, you must create multiple logical destinations, each with different options set on the default jobs. Then, you must create a different printer on your desktop to submit jobs to each logical destination. 1d.ii) Creating Infoprint Select printers on Windows 98 systems Adding your first Infoprint Select printer on Windows 98 systems Follow this procedure to add an Infoprint(R) Select printer to your Windows(R) 98 system: 1.

If you want to add additional Infoprint Select printers to your environment, follow the procedure described in "Adding an additional Infoprint Select printer on Windows XP systems". Adding an additional Infoprint Select printer on Windows XP systems Before adding an Infoprint Select printer to your Windows XP environment, you must first collect the information described in 1d.i, "Collecting required information". Also, you must perform the appropriate server configuration as described in 1b, "Configuring your Infoprint Manager server to work with Infoprint Select". To print to an additional Infoprint Select printer, you must add an additional Infoprint Select port. Otherwise the configuration is similar to that described above in "Adding your first Infoprint Select printer on Windows XP systems". To add an additional Infoprint printer to your Windows XP system, follow these steps: 1. From the Windows desktop, click Start-->Settings-->Printers-->Add Printer. 2. Select to Add a printer. The Add Printer Wizard window displays. Click Next. 3. In the Local or Network Printer dialog, select Local printer and clear the Automatically detect and install my Plug and Play Printer checkbox. Click Next. 4. Click Add port and highlight Infoprint Select from the pull-down list. Click Next. 5. In the dialog that opens, type a name for the new port, such as Infoprint-2, and click OK. (Use a name that no other port uses.) 6. Continue with step 6 of the procedure documented in "Adding your first Infoprint Select printer on Windows XP systems", configuring the new port you just added. 1e) Commands you can use with Select Typically, Infoprint Select is used to allow users to print to Infoprint Manager destinations from existing Windows applications (usually through the Print option on the File menu). In addition, you can use several Infoprint commands that can be issued at a Command Prompt on the client system. Information about security and how users can be authorized to Infoprint Manager is found in the topics "Managing Infoprint security with DCE" and "Managing non-DCE security for Infoprint Manager for AIX" in the IBM Infoprint Manager for AIX: Procedures manual. Infoprint Manager allows authorized users (normally all users) to use the following Infoprint commands: pdls Lists selected attribute values for a job, destination, or other Infoprint object pdpr Submits a job to a logical destination pdq Queries the status of selected jobs, of all jobs submitted to a logical destination, or of all jobs assigned to an actual destination Infoprint Manager allows authorized users (the job owner is usually authorized) to use the following Infoprint commands: pdmod Modifies the attributes of submitted jobs or of the documents in them pdrm Deletes jobs Infoprint Manager allows only authorized users to use the following Infoprint commands: pdaccount Collects summary accounting information for a specified time period in a comma delimited format about actual destinations on one or more servers. This information can be filed and imported into a spread sheet to calculate the cost of consumables, the usage rate of printers, the cost for each user, and so forth. pdcreate Creates logical destinations, queues, actual destinations, default jobs, default documents, media, auxiliary sheets, and resource contexts pdclean Removes all jobs from a server, logical destination, queue, or actual destination pddelete Deletes servers, logical destinations, queues, actual destinations, default jobs, default documents, media, auxiliary sheets, resource contexts, and jobs pddisable Prevents destinations from accepting jobs and logs from logging pdenable Enables destinations to accept jobs and logs to log pdpause Pauses a job, actual destination, queue, or all the queues and actual destinations in a server pdpromote Advances a job to the head of the queue pdreorder Reassigns a job to an actual destination or to the unassigned jobs area in the same server or in another server, and allows you to schedule it immediately before or after another job pdresubmit Resubmits a job, all the jobs submitted to a logical destination, or all the jobs in a queue to another logical destination pdresume Enables paused objects to resume operation pdset Sets or changes the values of attributes describing Infoprint objects pdshutdown Stops servers or actual destinations pdspace Backspaces or forward spaces a PSF physical printer Note: For more information about Infoprint commands and attributes, refer to Infoprint Manager: Reference, or to the man pages. Command man pages have the same name as the command. 1e.i) Querying destination attributes To determine whether the logical destination london is ready to receive jobs, enter: pdls -c destination -r "destination-state" london 1e.ii) Submitting a job To submit the file myjob.ps to the logical destination london and request two-sided printing, enter: pdpr -d london -x "sides=2" myjob.ps Note: The Infoprint Manager: Reference lists all the attributes and values that you can specify on the pdpr command. 1e.iii) Querying jobs To query all the jobs that you submitted to logical destination london, enter: pdq -d london Infoprint returns information similar to the following: Intervening Destination Destination Job ID Name State Jobs Requested Assigned --- ---------------- --------- -------- ----------- ----------- ----------- 13 Serv1:1104221000 report.ps printing 0 london caxton 14 Serv1:1104221023 myjob.ps pending 8 london morris (c) Copyright IBM Corp. 2000, 2002
