Job attributes provide information about how to process a print job. Typically a user sets these attributes interactively in the Job Options dialog box. However, as a system administrator, you can choose whether to change the default values for job attributes.

These attributes include:

  • job-name

  • xp-spooler-command-options

job-name

This attribute specifies the name given each job. Unless a user specifies a banner page interactively, this job name will appear on each banner page. By default, no job name is specified.

To change the default, enter the text that you want to appear on banner pages.

Example

This entry:

*job-name: Marketing - Bin 5 

specifies a job name, Marketing - Bin 5, that identifies the department and location where the printed document should be delivered when complete.

xp-spooler-command-options

This attribute can be used to specify command line options to the lp spooler. To do so, enter the exact command line options you want to apply when a job is sent to the spooler.

Example

This entry specifies a command option to omit banner pages.

*xp-spooler-command-options: -onb
