Processing Rule

Processing rules allow you to control the details of a print job, such as when the printing should begin, the print priority of the document, and the number of copies to print.

You create a rule for each type of document you have (for example, cash register receipt, coupon, return, and so on). In a separate step, you assign the processing rule to the document itself.

Defining processing rules is one step in the Generic Printing feature.
