Producing Output with Xprint V7.0 Using Xprint V7.0 options
Loadable resources (such as fonts, logos etc.) can be sent to the printer
separately from the document. The printer will merge the data and the loadable
resource to give the required printed output.
The resources external to the document can be defined as Xprint V7.0 objects
called “loadable resources”. They can either be predefined by the administrator
for the entire system and made available to all users, or they can be defined by
each individual user as “private loadable resources”. For further information on
creating and using loadable resources, see Chapter 4 in the “Reference
Manual”.
3.4.4.1 Using Public Loadable Resources
The administrator may have configured loadable resources in the system. To
print a document that uses resources, use the following option:
-lr loadable resources
With this option, you can reference a list of loadable resources.
Examples
– To display the loadable resources available in the system, use the command
xpshow -lrs
The system displays a list of all loadable resources that can be used. For
example, you could use any of the loadable resources listed below.
Name Type Administrator PCL
---- ---- ------------- ---------
logo Overlay root PJL-PCL5e
font Softfont root PJL-PCL5e
Please note that only those loadable resources are displayed which
have been defined by the Xprint V7.0 administrator. Your own job
loadable resources in the $HOME/.Xprint file are not displayed but can
also be used.
– To print a document with a logo on every page:
xpadd -dr mydocument -lr logo -cr ALL
Xprint V7.0 is only able to insert calls to resources at the top of a page in a
document. Other cases must be dealt with by the user. The user must call
the resource with the appropriate escape sequence (see the printer manual)
and with the identifier known by the printer. This identifier is shown in the
Internal Id field in the xpshow -lrs -di LONG display.
