Work with automated workflows
Learn about automated workflows
Automated workflows are managed in the Settings Editor. An automated workflow bundles a
series of pre-set attributes to define the job properties. You can apply an automated workflow
when you submit one or more PDF jobs. One of the automated workflow attributes defines if the
job ticket is ignored or not.
The printer has one factory defined automated workflow:
(default)
. You can adjust the attributes
of this automated workflow. You can also create other automated workflows.
[172] Automated workflows
You can apply an automated workflow at several locations.
•
Hotfolder: The hotfolder definition has a link to one of the available automated workflows. PDF
files submitted via a hotfolder shortcut on the desktop retrieve the properties of an automated
workflow or the properties of a JDF ticket. The system administrator can create new hotfolders.
NOTE
You can use the ticket editor to create or modify a JDF ticket.
•
LPR printing: PDF files can be submitted to the printer with the name of an automated
workflow in the LPR command. The queue name is the name of one of the available automated
workflows. Jobs submitted via this LPR command take the job properties of the automated
workflow.
•
Remote printer driver: When you select the name of an automated workflow, the submitted
print job takes over the attributes of the automated workflow.
•
Remote Manager: When you add a new job, and you select the name of an automated
workflow, the new added print job takes over the attributes of the automated workflow.
•
Control panel: When you use the [Apply automated workflow] function, and you select the
name of an automated workflow, the job takes over the attributes of the automated workflow.
The [Job label] field in the print queue refers to the name of the automated workflow. You can
select or filter print jobs according to this job label.
