Specifies the name of the hot folder associated with this logical destination.

Usage Guidelines

• This attribute must specify the name of the hot folder that is recognized by the InfoPrint server. For example, a client can access the hot folder as K:\hotfolder, while the server accesses it as /var/pd/hotfolder; the name specified with the hot-folder-directory attribute must be /var/pd/hotfolder.
• It is strongly recommended that you create your hot folder on the same system where your InfoPrint Manager server is installed. The polling traffic created by the InfoPrint Manager server process when it is looking for new files might cause performance degradation of the remote server hosting the directory, the InfoPrint Manager system, or the network connection between them.
