Configuring Xprint V7.0 Administering global job templates
command with the exception of -te job_template and -sx (silent execution)
(see also the description of xpadd -job in the “Xprint V7.0 - Reference
Manual” and the section “Printing files” on page 17).
Defining a job template on the basis of an existing template
A quick method of defining a job template is to copy an existing template and
modify it as required. Proceed as follows:
● To find out which job templates are already defined in the system and which
attributes these have, enter the following command:
xpshow -jtp
A list of all the existing job templates is displayed with their attributes.
● Now copy a suitable job template and make the required modifications:
xpcopy -jtp old_template new_template modifications
old_template represents the name of the existing template, while
new_template stands for the new, possibly modified template. The variable
modifications represents a list of modifications which distinguish the new
template from the old one. Each entry in this list consists of an option of the
xpadd -jtp command and a corresponding value (see also chapter
“Producing Output with Xprint V7.0”).
Adding a job template on a remote host
The Xprint V7.0 administrator (only) can also add a job template on a host other
than the local host with the -ah host_name option. To do this, proceed as follows:
● Log in as the Xprint V7.0 administrator.
● Add a job template on the remote host:
xpadd -jtp template_name options -ah host_name
template_name
represents the name of the job template.
options
stands for a list of options that may be used with the xpadd -jtp
command and which are applied whenever the template is used.
These are all the options available with the xpadd -job command
with the exception of -te job_template (see also chapter “Producing
Output with Xprint V7.0”).
