Using the LEADTOOLS Network Virtual Printer Server Demo
|
|
*******************************************************
|
|
|
|
The LEADTOOLS Network Virtual Printer Server Demo is designed to receive print jobs and then
|
|
save them to disk files. In addition, this demo receives custom data from the client machine.
|
|
The additional data can be any user specific data. In this example, the additional data are
|
|
the “File Save Name” and the desired “Save Format”.
|
|
|
|
The LEADTOOLS Virtual Printer can be installed on the client machine in the following ways:
|
|
-- Using normal Windows printer installation (point and print).
|
|
-- Using the Microsoft Internet Printing Protocol ( IPP ) Printer web page.
|
|
-- Using the LEADTOOLS Virtual Printer Client Installer Demo, which is destributed as part of
|
|
the LEADTOOLS Virtual Printer Client Setup.
|
|
|
|
NOTES:
|
|
* Installing the printer without using the Client Installer Demo will not allow for additional
|
|
data to be sent with the printed job.
|
|
* If you install the printer using either of the first two methods listed above, you still
|
|
must use Client Installer Demo if you want to take advantage of the Server-Client
|
|
communication mechanism (to send custom additional data).
|
|
* For additional information on using the diffrent installation methods, please refer to the
|
|
helpfile "<LEADTOOLS-Installation-Path>\Help\How To.chm".
|
|
|
|
|
|
The behavior of the LEADTOOLS Virtual Printer Server Demo depends on the manner in which the
|
|
printer driver was installed and from where you are printing:
|
|
-- If installed the printer driver using the Printer Client Installer Demo and you are
|
|
printing a job from the client machine:
|
|
The Server Demo will receive the custom data from the client, along with the printed job.
|
|
The Server Demo will save the job using the settings that you selected in the Client Demo
|
|
on the client machine.
|
|
-- If installed the printer driver WITHOUT using the Printer Client Installer Demo and you are
|
|
printing a job from the client machine, or if you are printing a job on the Server (local)
|
|
machine:
|
|
No additional data will be sent with the printed job and the Server Demo will save the
|
|
received prin job with default settings (“PDF" with file name “Job ID”). |
