11 - Document Printing

The print script allows the printing of PostScript, text and other files on WASD printers.  It is restricted to browsers from WASD hosts for obvious reasons! , or if configured for your local site! 

The print script may be accessed by specifying /print as a prefix to the document specification to be printed, as in the following example:

  <A HREF="/print/ht_root/doc/htd/htd.ps">This Document</A>

When this link is selected an online form is presented to the user allowing the selection of the print queue required.  An optional check-box allows the selection of two document pages per printed sheet on supporting print queues, allowing the ready conservation of paper.  The form can then be submitted to print the file. 

The following is an online demonstration. Selecting this link presents the print queue selection form. Do not select the (print) button unless you wish a copy of this document, use your browser to navigate backwards from the page:

Print this document.
