For example, an advertising firm is installing InfoPrint Manager for Windows to manage printing for its 1,200 employees. The company has 450 PCL and PostScript® printers that are between one and seven years old, and about 20 printers that are more than seven years old. They have recently purchased 5 PCL printers that are also enabled to use the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP). Most of the print jobs that users generate are from word processing, graphics, or desktop publishing programs. These applications create mostly PCL and PostScript print jobs, which do not need to be transformed to another data stream to be printed on the existing printers. The print administrator decides to create three kinds of actual destinations. v Passthrough printers will send jobs to the PostScript and PCL printers. v IPP printers will send jobs to the new IPP-enabled printers. v BSD printers will send jobs to the oldest of the printers (the ones that still receive jobs using the lpr command). MVS Download, DPF, or a combination of PC-based applications and host systems If you will be sending jobs to this destination from both PC-based applications and host systems (using DPF or MVS Download), use this table to see which type of destination fits your needs.
