Default Network Printers on PC and Macintosh Clients
For Macintosh and PC networks, the CXP6000 Color Server provides three
default network printers, known as virtual printers.
Virtual printers contain preset workflows that are automatically applied to
all print jobs processed with that virtual printer. There is no requirement
to reset job settings for each job. This functionality results in greatly
increased printing efficiency.
Note: The job (print) parameters set in the job override the parameters set in the
virtual printer.
CXP6000 Color Server preset virtual printers:
• ProcessPrint
Files sent to this printer are automatically processed and printed to the
printer through the CXP6000 Color Server.
• ProcessStore
Files sent to this printer are automatically processed and sent to the
Storage Folder of the CXP6000 Color Server. You can later submit the
jobs to be printed, or change the parameters of a job and resubmit it
for processing.
• SpoolStore
Files sent to this printer are automatically stored in the CXP6000 Color
Server's Storage Folder until the print operator submits them for
processing and printing.
An additional default network printer is provided for Macintosh networks.
• FontDownLoader
This is a special network printer used with Macintosh clients to
download fonts. The FontDownLoader functions as a
communications port, sending messages between the
FontDownLoader program and the CXP6000 Color Server. It is not
possible to send files via the FontDownLoader, only fonts.
The CXP6000 Color Server enables you to select which virtual printer to
print to. It also allows you to define new virtual printers, with printing
workflows tailored to your specific job requirements.
For more information see Chapter 5, “Administrating the System” in the
CXP6000 Color Server Printing Guide.
