Print Manager Preferences
The Print Manager Windows > Preferences ... menu option allows the adjustment of Print
Manager preferences.
There are three groups of preferences which can be altered, or set back to default settings at any time. These groups are:
- Language Choice
- General Settings
- SNMP Connection Settings
Language Choice
Select the display language.
As of PReS Connect version 1.6.1 the languages supported are:
- German (DE)
- English (EN)
- Spanish (ES)
- French (FR)
- Italian (IT)
- Japanese (JA)
- Chinese Simplified (ZH)
- Chinese Traditional (ZH_HK, ZH_MO or ZH_TW)
General Settings
- Hot Folder: Defines a global
hot folder that captures jobs and places them in the Job
Queue pane. This does not automatically print the jobs, however.
- Enable Hot Folder:
Check to enable the global hot folder.
- Monitored Folder: Enter
a path for the hot folder, or click Browse to browse for it.
- Session Retries: The number
of times Print Manager will try to reconnect to the printer before
it stops trying and produces a timeout error in the messages.
- Printer Timeout (sec):
The startup time of the printer before the timeout is reported in
the messages.
- Printer Ack Timeout (sec):
This is the time that Print Manager waits for a response from
the printer after sending a response request.
- Retry Delay: This is the
time in second that the Print Manager waits before retrying a job
after the timeout.
- Log Level: Use the drop-down
to select which log level to save. Higher log levels such as "Debug"
give more helpful messages and details in the log but can impact processing
time and resources.
- Printer Preferences:
SNMP Connection Settings
Options for printers that support Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)connection.
These include:
- Connection attempts: Defines the number of times to try a connection before abandoning the connection attempt,
- Polling interval (secs): Defines the polling interval in seconds.
This determines how often the Print Manager communicates with the printer. This setting applies to all communications with the printer. It impacts upon the Connect attempts (determining the interval between attempts) as well as how often the printer will be updated in the Printer Status pane.
