Header page configuration file

You can also select a step resource object as the value for the property instead of providing a path and filename. Using a step resource lets you change the specific file without editing all of the workflows that contain the step that uses the file. RICOH ProcessDirector provides these configuration files in this directory:

• On Linux: /aiw/aiw1/control_files/banner_pages
• On Windows: C:\aiw\aiw1\control_files\banner_pages

Format:

Length

Up to 255 characters (bytes)

Database name

Job.Print.HeaderConfig

Usage notes:

• If the Header copies property for the job has a value of 1 or greater, RICOH ProcessDirector verifies that the Header page configuration file property has a value, and that the configuration file exists. If RICOH ProcessDirector does not find the configuration file, it moves the job to an error state.
• For AFP banner pages, this value must specify the appropriate .cfg file.
• For PDF banner pages, this value must specify the appropriate .jrxml file.
• For AFP banner pages, if the Banner page type printer property has a value, RICOH ProcessDirector looks for a corresponding configuration file. If it finds a corresponding configuration file and the file is different from the configuration file that the job specifies, RICOH ProcessDirector uses the configuration file that the Banner page type printer property specifies. For example, if the Header page configuration file job property has a value of header.cfg, and the printer property has a value of Narrow, RICOH ProcessDirector looks for a configuration file in the directory specified by the job with a name of header.narrow.cfg. If that file exists, RICOH ProcessDirector uses that file instead of the header.cfg file.
• On Linux primary computers: For PDF banner pages that print on Ricoh PDF or Custom PDF printers on application servers, this value must specify the drive letter that the application server uses to connect to the /aiw directory on the primary computer. For example, the application server uses Z: to connect, and the file path to the header page configuration file on the primary computer is /aiw/aiw1/control_files/banner_pages/header.jrxml. This value must specify Z:\aiw1\control_files\banner_pages\header.jrxml.
