You can view the attributes of this transaction setup when you click the [IPDS transaction setup] and [PCL transaction setup] tab. You can also open a transaction setup with the status: [Loaded].
Create a new transaction setup Create a new transaction setup Introduction For transaction printing, transaction setups are required. Transaction setups contain specific settings for specific transaction jobs. You can create setups in the Settings Editor. NOTE This section describes how to create a transaction setup from scratch. If you want to create a transaction setup that is very similar to an existing setup, you can also create a copy and make changes afterwards.
Edit a transaction setup Edit a transaction setup Procedure 1. Select [Transaction printing] -> [Transaction setups]. 2. Tick the checkbox of the setup you want to edit. 3. If required, click the [Edit] button to change the name or description of the setup, then click [OK]. 4.

Validate all transaction setups Validate all transaction setups You can validate all available transaction setups. The report displays for every transaction setup the tray selection mechanism ([Tray to media] or [Tray to tray]) and the number of valid and invalid trays. For transaction setups with problems, use the [Validate] option to get more information.
