Editing configuration files

There are five configuration files that come with the InfoPrint Manager PCL to AFP and PostScript to AFP transforms. For the PCL transform, they are: pcl2afp.cfg and pcl2afpd.cfg. For the PostScript transform they are: ps2afp.cfg, ps2afpd.cfg (used with InfoPrint 4000 and InfoPrint 4100 printers), and 3160d.cfg (used with all other IPDS printers). You only need to edit one of these files based on the data stream that your driver produces, the printer you send your jobs to, and on these considerations.
  • Edit pcl2afpd.cfg, ps2afpd.cfg, or 3160d.cfg if you want everyone to use the same mappings. This method is recommended.
  • Edit pcl2afp.cfg or ps2afp.cfg if different people have to use different mappings.
Follow these steps to edit the appropriate file.
  1. On the system that your InfoPrint Manager server is installed on, locate the file. It should be in the /usr/lpp/psf/pcl2afp or the /usr/lpp/psf/ps2afp directory.
  2. Open the file in a text editor, such as dtpad, vi, or pico.

    At the bottom of the file, you will see blocks of instructions and sample commands.
