4. Tools and utilities Set Retain PDL Changing the retain PDL setting This section includes various software tools and utilities for use with the DocuSP software. The retain PDL feature on the DocuSP is limited to only retain 50 completed jobs for future printing. Depending on the size of retained jobs and the size of the internal hard drives, a lower value may be more appropriate for some customers. A UNIX utility named setretainPDL has been added to the DocuSP to allow the user to specify the number of jobs to be retained within a range of 1 to 100. Customers who use the retain PDL feature must be aware that monitoring the disk capacity is the responsibility of the end-user. The DocuSP does not have a process for indicating when the disk is full. Increasing the number of retained jobs should only be done if the customer is confident that this will not fill the controller hard drive. Approaching disk capacity can prevent job transmission or otherwise impact system behavior. Perform the following steps to modify the number of PDLs that can be retained on the DocuSP. 1. On the DocuSP interface, select Setup and System Preferences. Select the Job Policy tab. 2. Ensure that the setting for Retain PDL files of last 50 jobs is set as enabled. 3. Select [OK]. Do not restart the system if you are prompted to do so. 4. In the background, right-click to open the menu. Open a Terminal window. 5. Login as root user. 6. Type: /opt/XRXnps/bin/setretainPDL # and press , where # is a number between 1 and 100. A value of 0 maintains the current setting. 7. Close the Terminal window. Restart the DocuSP software.
