TOPIC

    The ASIP Print Server's Log sometimes lists the number of Copies printed in a print job and other times recorded is N/A. Why the inconsistency?


DISCUSSION

    The ASIP Print Server's Log will record the number of Copies printed as N/A if the print job was created by a LaserWriter driver older than LaserWriter 8, version 8.6, or possibly by a PostScript driver on another type of computer other than a Macintosh.

    LaserWriter 8.6 includes a new DSC comment, %RBINumCopies, in the print job listing the number of Copies to be printed that a spooler or document accounting program could look for and log.

    Therefore, when the number of Copies in the Log reads N/A, the job was created by an old printer driver. If a numeric value is given for the number of Copies, the print job was created by LaserWriter 8.6 or newer.
