Defining printer types allows you to assign print style and printer driver definitions to any number of printers by registering the printers as a specific "type".
When users choose a printer to send a report to, the available print styles are normally determined by the printer type.
Concurrent programs, however, can be defined to require their report output in a specific print style. For example, some Oracle Reports programs may require a specific print style in order to print correctly.
Attention: You should issue a Restart concurrent manager command for all currently active managers whenever you edit an existing Printer Type, Print Style, or Printer Driver.
See: Controlling Concurrent Managers
Enter a name for a printer type. Example printer types might be "LINE" for a line printer or "LN03" for an LN03 model printer.
You select this printer type when you register a printer using the Printers window.
The Style button opens the Printer Styles window.
The Driver button opens the Printer Drivers window.
