InterFormNG2 Manual

This workflow component can be used, if you have too many printers to register them manually. The use of this component requires, that you have a license for InterFormNG2, that enables the use of an unlimited number of printers.

 

With this component you print directly to a LAN attached, physical printer via Line Printer Deamon (LPD). This can e.g. be used, if you want to print via print server.

 

The parameters for this component are:
