Issue/Introduction

How to use a project file different from the default A2PC.d2eproj with a particular printer?

Environment

Release : 14.0

Component : CA Spool

Resolution

To do so, you can create a new project file with name A2PCxxxx.d2eproj where xxxx is any suffix you want to give to this particular project file.

Then, in the printer definition include the DRIVPRM1 keyword pointing to this new project file:

NODE PRT1,VPSDEF01,          
    TRANSFRM=A2PCLK,            
    PURGE=YES,SEP=2,SEPOPT=3,    
    DRIVPRM1='D2EPROJ=A2PDxxxx' 
    TCPHOST=xxxxxx

          

Additional Information

The search for a project file occurs in the following sequence:

1. Search D2EPROJ=filename1.d2eproj file if specified on the Node definition as D2EPROJ=filename1 on DRIVPRM1-4 or on the file's OUTPUT ADDRESS or USERDATA parameters. Do not include the extension .d2eproj on these parameters.
   
   
2. Search filename2.d2eproj file where filename2 is the CA Spool file name.
   
   
3. Search filename3.d2eproj file where filename3 is the device type name defined for the target printer node using DEFNODE statement.
   
   
4. Search A2PCSFTF.d2eproj, if A2PC Soft Font support is in use.
   
   
5. Search x2yy.d2eproj where x2yy is the transformer id specified through file PRMODE parameter or node TRANSFRM parameters.
