Allowed Values

For AIX DSS and PSF Other-driver DSS on AIX, you can enter a text string up to 255 characters long that contains the name (ID) of the output device that prints jobs assigned to this actual destination. The value can identify the path to the device name, commonly located in /dev directory (such as /dev/lp0), /var/slppol/lpd/stat/, or more generally, it is the name of an empty file used for controlling access to the device. InfoPrint Manager for AIX creates the empty file in /var/pd/servername/ for you if you do not specify one or if you do not specify an absolute path.

For Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) DSS, enter the URL for the IPP printer.

For Passthrough DSS and PSF Other-driver DSS on Windows, enter the WindowsPort Name.
