JDF File
The JDF file is an instruction file to publish discs. This file needs to be created by your cooperative application. When the JDF
file is moved into the monitoring folder, disc publishing operation specified by the file is started.
❏ Specify the job ID (not indispensable), disc type, number of copies, write data file, and label print data file.
❏ The JDF file must be created in ANSI text format with extension "JDF". Save the file under desired name.
❏ To specify the path, the UNC (Universal Naming Convention) can be used.
❏ Do not delete or change the name of the JDF file which is copied or moved to the monitoring folder. The
extension of those files changes according to the operation status. See the transition diagram of JDF files
below.
❏ The JDF file moves from the monitoring folder to the log folder one or two hours after the job is
completed/cancelled/finished abnormally. (See "Log Function" on page 4-98.)
JDF File Transition
The extension of the JDF file changes according to the job status. Checking on the progress of the job can be made by
monitoring the extension. If you need to grasp more detailed status of a job, monitor the STF file using your cooperative
application. The job status and Discproducer status also can be checked on the EPSON Total Disc Monitor screen.
Do not delete the JDF files using your cooperative application.
