Setting the Output Preset

The Output Preset setting contains a combination of the output device (actually the input port for RIP print data) and its output position (print layout that sets the position where the fixing jig is installed). It is possible to configure some of the printing settings that are delivered to the RIP. This is used by a user who has Operator privileges (or Power User privileges) when printing an assigned Order.

It is expected that in most cases, the administrator who is in charge from order receipt to production will be the person who prepares the fixing jig for efficiently creating the product and who decides the positioning location together with the printer. For this reason, it is more efficient for the administrator to configure all of the Output Preset settings at once. The set Output Preset is the method of printing that is used by the Operator in each location.

This section introduces the procedure for configuring the Output Preset settings for each Operator by a user who has Admin privileges. Before configuring the Output Preset settings, the following work must be completed in advance on each Operator PC.
  • Installation of Output Manager
  • Startup of Output Manager and PAM login
  • Registration of printers in VersaWorks (registration of printers that can output from each Operator PC)
