I don't know about dozens, but the workgroup printer/scanner/copier/document server just down the way seems to support these as "printable documents": PDF, TIFF, XPS, JPEG, TXT and PRN (some, like PDF, have more than one flavor)...

Don't know what it would take to send a document to the device and print it, but that doesn't sound like rocket science... Then again, the whole notion of publishing to paper seems a little old fashioned...

Can you point us to an example of a printer that takes in dozens of formats ?

I would like to see one of those :-)

Well, I would really think that depends on what printing device is on the other end... Most high-speed printers are now equipped with document servers, which often allow for DOZENS of document formats. I would NOT cross the PRTSTMF tool off the list just yet... I don't recall any specific printer models, only that the output jobs could be very large...

Just saying...

Not with a mixture of TIFF and PDF documents.

The documents need to be rendered real-time to the printer format of choice.

I believe he has both PDF and TIFF docs.

We also have an API for rendering RAW files right to the printer via an outq, but this assumes the files have been pre-rendered to the format of choice whether it be PDF, Postscript, PCL, AFPDS, etc.

We also have an API to render documents to AFPDS format so they can be printed on an AFPDS/IPDS printer if needed.
