INTELLIscribe: Protocol Options

INTELLIscribe • Virtual printer port • Policies • Protocol options • Destination • Name

Host-specific information for each destination is required to set up each Virtual Printer Port. This step has protocol-specific attributes. You may also customize user- or network-specific information for each destination.

Note: Always attempt to print using the default settings first and then modify these settings as needed. Normally, the default attributes are sufficient.
