5. Enable or disable Print Billing Command, as required. This feature enables NSE
to support Driverless Print servers. If this feature is enabled, you must enable the
XML interface and enter the IP address for the XML interface (Step 3 and Step
4). With Print Billing enabled, print servers can bill subscribers’ rooms for
printing their documents without them having to install printers.
The DNS name print.server.com will internally resolve to the Configured Print
Server URL that is entered in the configuration. When subscribers are redirected
to the Print Server the NSE adds Parameters to that request, so that the Server is
able to charge the proper subscriber.
With these variables sent to the server it can now send the XML command to bill
the users properly.
Print Server IP needs to be entered as one of the XML server IP for the command
to successfully complete.
The XML command is:
<USG COMMAND="BILL_PRINT" IP_ADDR="">
<ROOM_NUM></ROOM_NUM>
<DOC_NAME></DOC_NAME>
<NUM_COPIES></NUM_COPIES>
<NUM_PAGES></NUM_PAGES>
<COST></COST>
<TIME_SUBMITTED></TIME_SUBMITTED>
</USG>
Subscribers could get to print.server.com by:
z ICC button link
z Printout in the hotel room
z Link from the hotel’s HPR Page.
6. Enable or disable the AAA Passthrough Port feature, as required.
System administrators can set the HSG to pass-through HTTPS traffic, in
addition to standard port 80 traffic, without being redirected. When access to a
non-HTTPS address (for example, a Search Engine or News site) has been
requested, the subscriber is then redirected as usual.
Your product license may not support this feature.
