Attribute Mapping with IPP


The attributes for printing (for example, copies or duplex) come from various sources: The document itself (only PostScript documents), a specific seal-attributes tag inside the IPP request and standard IPP attributes.

For using them in the printer configuration templates, the available attributes are merged with general seal-attributes and documents parameters.


The following list shows the mapping of some standard IPP attributes and the priority:

PLOSSYS 5 Attribute Printer Template Usage Merge Highest Prio (Document) Merge Second Prio (seal-attributes) Merge Lowest Prio (Standard IPP)
jobName JOBNAME PLS_PLOTID, JOBNAME PLS_PLOTID job-name
fileName document-name
printerName PLS_PLOTTER SAP_OMS_S_DEVICE, PLS_PLOTTER job-printer-uri
userName USERNAME PLS_USERNAME PLS_USERNAME requesting-user-name
copies PLOTCOPY PLS_PLOTCOPY WIN_INF_COPIES, SAP_OMS_S_COPIES, PLS_PLOTCOPY copies
