PrintSpot
collects and uses this information.
The labels presented to the user for these fields cannot be customized.
-
Email Address
: When selected, the user will be asked to provide an email address with their print job. When jobs are submitted using your
PrintSpot’s
web page, this address will be used to send the user an email containing the Release Code for their job.
-
User Identifier
: When selected, the user will be asked to provide additional identifying information that will be included with a print job. This may include information such as a network login, room number or employee ID.
-

Releasing print jobs
|
Print jobs are sent from your
PrintSpot
to the Print Delivery Station or
PrintConnect
, which collects the print jobs and either sends them immediately to printers or holds them until the user (or an attendant) is present to release them.
-
Automatically when they arrive
: When selected, Print Jobs will be automatically released to the printer and will not require a Release Code to print.
Using a
PrinterOn
Solution or
HotSpot

Advanced Integration Options
|
-
Enable 3rd Party Integration
:
PrinterOn’s
solution may be integrated with a third-party solution, such as a print/cost management solution. Users will release their print jobs using a solution provided by a third party.
-
Inject PJL Header container if none exists
:
PrinterOn
is able to
deliver job and user information to third party integrates using the PJL header. In some cases, headers may not be presented in the print job. This is the case when using the
PrinterOn
Generic
Postsscript
driver. If you integrated relies on PJL headers, such as
Equitrac
, then enable this option.
-
Inject PJL Header into Passthrough Jobs
: Some configurations will use
PrinterOn
Passthrough print capability that allows jobs to be delivered directly to a printer untouched. For some integrations, a PJL header may be required to communicate information. Enabling this option will allow
PrinterOn
to add PJL headers to Passthrough print jobs. Note, enabling this means that
PrinterOn
may modify the contents of a Passthrough job to add the PJL headers. If the destination does not support PJL headers, this option should not be enabled.
-
Allow
PrinterOn
to Manage PJL for Passthrough Jobs
: By default, Passthrough jobs are not modified. They are received and delivered “as-is” to the destination. In some configurations, pre-rendered print data, may be delivered to
PrinterOn
for process (such as PQMS print data). By default,
PrinterOn
will not modify the job. By enabling this option,
PrinterOn
will inspect and modify the PJL header if it exists in the job received by the client.
NOTE:
The Advanced integration features should be enabled only if they are supported by your Printer Management Server (PMS). If you are unsure whether your PMS supports this functionality, please contact your PMS provider.
