You can access the interface of the Job Sumbission Web Service at http://loadbalancer: 9780/lmc/services/JobSubmission?wsdl, where loadbalancer is the computer where your load balancer is installed. The following table lists the methods used with the Job Submission Web Service: Method Target Description Parameters Return values start Load Initiate a job balancer submission session • resolver-The resolver used to determine the device group, solution, and task settings. The default resolver uses clientIP and profileName only. • protocol-The protocol used to extract prompt answers from the metadata. The default is webdav. • authId-The client user name • clientIP-The client IP address • deviceGroup-The device group associated with the job • profileName-The profile used for the job • sessionID-The session ID, which must be used in later calls • tomcatIP-The address of the LDD server, which must be the target for later calls • scanUrl-The WebDAV folder where documents are submitted post WebDAV Submit files in response to ScanPrompt See the WebDAV documentation. metadata LDD Server Provide answers for other prompts • continue-Indicates more metadata follows Reserved • scan.x.file.y-The path of a scanned file in the WebDAV repository. x indicates the sequence number of a scan prompt, and y indicates the sequence number of a file from that scan prompt. x and y are both zero‑based. Understanding dynamic prompting support When a profile is selected, solutions usually either prompt you for information or start a job. Many solutions involve submitting jobs with related information (such as account numbers, passwords, or processing options) that is obtained through prompting. Where possible, prompting should occur before submitting the job. This gives you the opportunity to cancel jobs when prompted for information they don't have at the moment. The Job Submission Web Service provides prompting capability to Lexmark Document Server Printer Port clients. From the port monitor, the following prompts are supported: • MessagePrompt • BooleanPrompt • IntegerPrompt • ListPrompt • ArrayPrompt • PasswordPrompt
