Introduction to the Print-on-Demand Feature client software

IBM Infoprint Submit for the Macintosh Operating System

The Infoprint Submit Express for the Windows Operating System client is replacing the Infoprint Submit client; however, this product continues to be included with Infoprint Manager for AIX and is supported. You may continue using it if you are a current user. For instructions on using Infoprint Submit for Windows , refer to the Infoprint Manager for AIX Print-on-Demand Feature: Submit for Windows Users' Guide.

The Infoprint Submit Express for the Windows Operating System client is updated and contains several enhancements to usability, serviceability, and reliability from the previous Windows version. If you are a new user of the Print-on-Demand Feature, we recommend that you use the new Submit Express client.

The Infoprint Submit for the Macintosh Operating System client is still available. For instructions on using Infoprint Submit for Macintosh, refer to the Infoprint Manager for AIX Print-on-Demand Feature: Submit for Macintosh User's Guide.

Migrating job tickets from previous versions of Infoprint Submit

To migrate job tickets from a previous version of Submit to your current version of Submit on Mac OS Version 10.1, do the following:

From the previous version of Submit, open the job ticket you want to migrate.
Submit the job:
- Open the Ticket menu and select Submit Job to submit the job.
- Select the Schedule tab from the Submit dialog.
- Select Hold from the RIP options group box.
- Click OK to submit the job.
Select Options *-> Job Status to open the Job Status dialog.
Do the following to copy the contents of the job ticket file to a text file:
- Select the ticket you want to migrate.
- Click the View Ticket button to open the Job Ticket window.
- Highlight the entire contents of the job ticket file.
- Copy the contents of the job ticket file to the clipboard (press Command+C).
- Open a new file in a text editor.
- Paste the job ticket file contents into this new file (press Command+V).
- Save the file. (Be sure this file has an extension of .jtk.)
Transfer all source files listed in your job ticket file, and the converted job ticket file, to the system that has the current version of Submit. Save them in the directory where the Infoprint Submit files have been saved or where they can be easily located.
In your current version of Submit, select Ticket *->Open to open the migrated job ticket file. An error may occur the first time you assign a source file to the migrated job ticket if the path to the file has changed. Use the Browse function to locate the file, and Submit will save the new location information.

Known product limitations

Restrictions in the Mac operating system or Java implementation tools have caused the following known product limitations in this version of Infoprint Submit:

When using File *-> Save As, or if the user is saving a job ticket for the first time, the Name field is not displayed as the default file name for saving the ticket.
After recovering from a System Standby, the spin buttons (up/down arrow buttons) on entry fields cannot be used with the mouse. You can type a value into the entry fields, or use the arrow keys on the keyboard to change the displayed values.
When migrating job tickets for which duplex printing and a separate back side adjustment are selected, page placement values for the back side of the paper are not saved in the migrated job ticket. Settings for the back side must be adjusted manually.
Some keyboard usage methods do not conform to standard system controls. Refer to the online Help for Infoprint Submit for instructions on using the keyboard.
