Chapter 2: Installing and Configuring UNIX Printing Software on a HP/UX System Using a Banner Page A banner page is a lead sheet that can precede a print job. It contains useful information that lets other users who are printing from the same print queue, determine the ownership of a print job. A banner page is also useful for dividing print jobs, in the event that multiple print jobs are in the output tray. A banner page contains the following information: • the login name of the user responsible for printing the print job. • the hostname of the computer from where the print job has originated. • the file name of the job that is printing. If the user is printing a book file, or another type of file from where multiple documents are queued to print simultaneously, only the name of the first file in the book will appear on the banner page. • the UNIX system group of the user who printed the print job. • The time that the print job was submitted to the print queue. • The print queue name. Configuring a Banner Page Including a banner as part of your print job is optional. However, if you elect to include them as part of your print job, you have the option of printing them from the same input tray as the actual print jobs, or from one that is specifically designated for the banners. Tip: One way to help distinguish between banner pages and the actual print jobs is to have the banner pages print from a paper tray containing colored paper. Banner Page Options A print queue has three options for banner pages. They are: • NoBanner Select the "NoBanner" option if you do not want banners to precede your print jobs. • Default Select the "Default" option if you want the banner page to print from the printer's default tray. 2-368/25/02 UNIX Printing Software Administration and Installation Guide

UNIX Printing Software Administration and Installation Guide
Chapter 2: Installing and Configuring UNIX Printing Software on a HP/UX System
Using a Banner Page
A banner page is a lead sheet that can precede a print job. It contains useful
information that lets other users who are printing from the same print queue,
determine the ownership of a print job. A banner page is also useful for dividing print
jobs, in the event that multiple print jobs are in the output tray.
A banner page contains the following information:
•
the login name of the user responsible for printing the print job.
•
the hostname of the computer from where the print job has originated.
•
the file name of the job that is printing. If the user is printing a book file, or
another type of file from where multiple documents are queued to print
simultaneously, only the name of the first file in the book will appear on the
banner page.
•
the UNIX system group of the user who printed the print job.
•
The time that the print job was submitted to the print queue.
•
The print queue name.
Configuring a Banner Page
Including a banner as part of your print job is optional. However, if you elect to
include them as part of your print job, you have the option of printing them from the
same input tray as the actual print jobs, or from one that is specifically designated for
the banners.
Tip:
One way to help distinguish between banner pages and the actual print jobs is to have
the banner pages print from a paper tray containing colored paper.
Banner Page Options
A print queue has three options for banner pages. They are:
•
NoBanner
Select the “NoBanner” option if you do not want banners to precede your print
jobs.
•
Default
Select the “Default” option if you want the banner page to print from the printer’s
default tray.
