Notify-operator attribute

The notify-operator attribute is a scaled-down version of a notification profile. It can only be set on InfoPrint Manager queues and actual destinations and can only use the e-mail, message, exit and wireless delivery methods. In addition, it only sends messages when one of these events occur.

  1. A job is added to a queue.
  2. An actual destination starts processing a job.
  3. An actual destination finishes processing a job.

The syntax of the notify-operator attribute is:

delivery-method:delivery-address
See InfoPrint notification delivery method characteristics for descriptions of the e-mail and message delivery methods and their corresponding delivery addresses. By default, the notify-operator attribute is set to message:your user ID@your node when you create an actual destination or a queue. To change the value for an actual destination, you can use the Notification tab of the properties notebook. To change the value for a queue, use the pdset command.

The messages that the notify-operator attribute delivers are not standard error messages like the ones you receive when you use a full notification profile. Instead, you write the messages that you want to send and specify them as attributes of jobs
