Sample configuration file for the pdfprs client
The following figure shows an example of a configuration file for the PDF parallel transform client. Note the three parameters that have been highlighted to show values you want to specify exactly as shown to enhance the performance of the parallel PDF RIP.
Note: The PDF parallel transform cannot be used together with the APPE transform.
Sample PDF parallel transform (pdf2afp.cfg) configuration file
# pdf2afp.cfg configuration file # KEYWORD EQUIVALENT ps2afp FLAG PURPOSE #################################################################### width = 8.5i # -w width of generated image length = 11i # -l length of generated image x_offset = 0i # -x left and right margins y_offset = 0i # -y top and bottom margins resolution = 600 # -r resolution of printer output_type = FS45 # type of AFP image to generate job_timeout = 120 # maximum number of minutes to process a job number_of_rips = 3 # how many rips to use [pdf] # location of PDF -> PS conversion rip port = 8261 server = server1 [rip1] # location of this rip port = 8262 server = server1 [rip2] # location of this rip port = 8263 server = server1 [rip3] # location of this rip port = 8264 server = server1
This sample configuration file uses keyword equivalents of the transform flags. See RICOH InfoPrint Manager: Reference for the keywords and values that you can specify in the configuration file.
Note: For this sample pdf2afp.cfg configuration to work correctly, you must have a configuration with a minimum of
four processors dedicated to this task.
