Methods of sending jobs to the Windows system and submitting them
to InfoPrint XT
You can use these methods to send Xerox LCDS and metacode jobs to the
Windows system and to process them with InfoPrint XT:
Download for z/OS
Download for z/OS is a separately orderable, licensed feature of IBM Print
Services Facility (PSF) for z/OS. You can use it to transfer Xerox jobs over
a TCP/IP network to a directory on the Windows system. You also need
InfoPrint Manager for Windows (InfoPrint Manager), and an MVS
Download receiver that it provides, to process jobs through Download for
z/OS.
InfoPrint Select
With InfoPrint Select, you can send jobs from word processors, spreadsheet
programs, and other desktop applications. InfoPrint Manager provides the
InfoPrint Select client; it is not a part of InfoPrint XT.
LPR If you have InfoPrint Manager installed, you can send Xerox jobs from any
system that supports the line printer control program through the lpr
command.
pdpr command
If you have InfoPrint Manager installed, you can use the InfoPrint
Manager pdpr command to submit Xerox jobs for processing. For detailed
information about the use of this command, see the InfoPrint Manager
documentation listed in the “Bibliography” on page 171.
pdxtx2afp command
You can use the InfoPrint XT pdxtx2afp command to process Xerox jobs
and create the corresponding AFP versions of the jobs.
For more information about processing jobs, see Chapter 5, “Submitting Xerox jobs
for data stream conversion,” on page 59.
Xerox job restrictions
These restrictions apply to Xerox jobs that you process with InfoPrint XT:
Accounting statistics
Xerox printers can provide information about job processing, which
includes information that is specific to the reports in the job. You can use
this information for purposes such as billing or supplies management.
InfoPrint XT also collects accounting information at the report level.
However, InfoPrint XT does not provide a method of matching the Xerox
accounting information to the number of pages that actually print on the
printer hardware. The InfoPrint XT accounting information is specific to
the pages that it converts.
FILE DJDE support
In the Xerox environment, Xerox printers can only process one job at a
time. InfoPrint XT can process two or more jobs concurrently. Do not
submit two jobs at the same time that specify different versions of the
same resource. Also, do not process any job that specifies more than one
version of the same resource in the reports in the job. Unpredictable results
can occur in both cases.
