Running a Script in Print Rules
You can specify a command that executes when a print rule is run using the substitution
values shown in the
Print rules substitution variablestable.
Print rules substitution variables
| Substitution variable | Meaning |
|---|---|
| %i | The name of the input file. |
| %o | The name of the file in which to store the output. |
| %j | The name of the original print file, minus the path (from the document-file-name attribute).
Note: This should only be used to construct another name, such as a temporary file.
|
| %n | The name of the original print file, minus the path and minus the extension (from
the document-file-name attribute).
Note: This should only be used to construct another name, such as a temporary file.
|
| %d | A text string that represents the document format of the input file.
Note: You can also acquire document format through the %%Ddocument-format substitution value.
|
| %p | The value of the document's destination-pass-through attribute. |
| %s | The document-sequence-number for the document. |
| %t | The value of the document's other-transform-options attribute. |
| %g | The global job identifier for the job. |
| %# | The job-identifier (10 digits maximum). |
| %%Ddoc_attribute%% | The value of the InfoPrint Manager document attribute specified. For example, if you use %%Ddepartment-text%%, InfoPrint Manager passes the document's department-text attribute value.
Note: See the "Considerations when using the %%Nattributename substitution control sequences" topic under the "Usage guidelines" for the other-transform-options attribute for transforms in the RICOH InfoPrint Manager: Reference before using this substitution variable.
|
| %%Jjob_attribute%% | The value of the InfoPrint Manager job attribute specified. For example, if you use %%Jjob-owner%%, InfoPrint Managerpasses the job-owner attribute value of the job that owns the document.
Note: See the "Considerations when using the %%Nattributename substitution control sequences" topic under the "Usage guidelines" for the other-transform-options attribute for transforms in the RICOH InfoPrint Manager: Reference before using this substitution variable.

- Note:
- Each substitution variable must be passed as a single parameter to the script. You must not concatenate substitution variables with one another or with any other text.
- If you are specifying any substitutions for which the passed values might contain a blank space, such as
job name, be sure to put quotes around the substitution so it is passed correctly. Note that this only applies to single%substitution variables. Do not put quotes around any%%substitution variables.
