Send documents to a Microsoft Universal Print Platform

Complete the following steps to define destinations for printing to Microsoft Universal Print Platform. Documents routed to this destination will be sent to the specified Microsoft Universal Print Platform.

1. In the Destinations tree, right-click the destination group (folder) where you want to add destinations, and click New Destination.
   This opens the Add Destination dialog box.
2. In the Type list, select Microsoft Universal Print.
3. Click OK.
4. Configure the general settings.
   1. Enter the destination Name.
   2. In the Server list, click the Output Manager server where the Output Manager Output Service is located for this destination.
      The destination does not have to be on the same server as the Output Manager Output Service.
   3. Enter any Comments and Location information for the destination.
   4. Optional: To change the large destination image that displays when configuring a single destination, you can click Select Image and choose the appropriate image file (BMP, JPEG, or PNG).
      The selected image will be compressed and scaled to 96x96 pixels. Changing this image will not change the smaller image that displays or the image that displays in the source tree. To change the image back to the default, click Reset Image.
5. Configure the Microsoft Universal Print settings.
   1. Select a URL from the list. It contains the Azure Universal Print applications created in Configuration Assistant. Click Refresh to update the Name list.
   2. Select a printer from the Name list.
      The ID is completed automatically.
6. Configure options on the More settings tab.
   1. Select the printing cost per page for black and white and color documents.
   2. Select Include documents in Green Reports to make documents sent to the destination available for green reports. The documents appear in green reports once they are removed from Output Manager.
   3. Select the appropriate Failover profile. You can select an existing profile in the list or create one in the Failover Profile dialog box.
      • To create a profile during single destination configuration, click New.
      • To create during multiple destination configuration, click the Browse button.
      Failover profiles specify what should happen to documents when they are sent to inaccessible destinations (they are not able to receive documents).
   4. Determine if you want to override the failover profile assigned to the document and use the selected destination failover profile.

   The Printer family, Destination specific capabilities, and Output process settings are disabled for Microsoft Universal Print.

7. On the Error handling tab, configure the error handling options.
   1. Select the appropriate Error handling profile. You can select an existing profile in the list, or create one in the Error Handling Profile dialog box. To create a profile during single destination configuration, click New. To create during multiple destination configuration, click the Browse button.
      Error handling profiles specify what should happen to destinations when an error is detected via SNMP or during transmission of a document.
   2. Choose the Default failover destination.
      This specifies what should happen to documents when they are sent to inaccessible destinations (they are not able to receive documents). You can choose to route the documents to a parent group or a specific destination or group. The parent group where the destination currently resides is selected by default.
   3. Select Set Ready documents to Hold when service starts box if necessary.
