Preset name

Specifies the name of the printer preset that this job requires. If your printer supports receiving a preset request with an AFP job, you can use this property to request a preset. The printer automatically switches to use the preset specified. If your printer does not support this function, you can use Preset name as a scheduling property.

Usage note:

  • Sometimes presets are also referred to as setups.
  • If you request a preset for a job and that preset is available on the printer but requires operator intervention to apply (such as to load a different paper), the job goes into error.
  • If you request a preset for a job and that preset is not available on the printer, the job goes into error.
  • If you use this property as a scheduling property, you can schedule jobs to a printer that has the same value for its Preset name property.

    However, this property is not updated with the Make job match printer action. To update it, use Edit Scheduling Properties or open the job property notebook and update it directly.

  • You can use a RICOH ProcessDirector symbol for the value of this property. For more information about symbol notation and how to use it, refer to the help system.
