Defining Printer Attributes

The Printer section of the View/Change Printers dialogue deals with the printer
attributes that are displayed in the PARIS Spooler control panel. The first thing
to do is to name the printer.

Printer Name

A printer is given a ‘File Name’ and a ‘Full Name’ and each is entered in the
relevant box in the View/Change Printer dialogue.

The ‘File Name’ (default setting NEWPRT)  is used to identify the printer in
the Spooler system and must be a valid DOS filename, up to 8 characters and
must also be unique.

  

For example ACCNTL3

The ‘Full Name’ is displayed in the ‘Printer’ column in the PARIS Spooler
control panel. The default setting is NEW_PRINTER

Up to 16 characters can be used. Spaces are allowed.

For example: Accounts_Level3

 

Both names must be entered.
