    • Article Type: Q&A
    • Product: Aleph

    Question

    Where to find the connection between the XSL filename and the name in the print.ini? 

    Answer

    A spreadsheet containing all the known function names can be found here print-function-names.xls

     

    Additional Information

    See also article How to Print Notices to Patrons to Both the Printer and Email. It discusses how to use a function name even if one doesn’t exist.

    It is a common misconception that print.ini job names can also be used by Services. The lines in print.ini are ONLY for use with "on-demand" printing, not with printing from the Services menu. "On-demand" printing refers to letters and forms that are printed from the GUI either as automatic responses to some action or by clicking a Print button.
    Services menu jobs such as acq-14 and cir-52 do not have job names in print.ini.
