To be able to implement a new device type format, you must Create the corresponding format type. In addition, a page format must exist for this format type.

1. Choose Tools ® CCMS ® Spool ® Spool administration, Full administration
2. In the Device types field under the DeviceTypes tab page, enter the name of the copied device type (Zxxx) and confirm your entry.
3. Choose Formats. Then choose Change and Create.
4. Enter the name of the format type that you want to use for your device type. Choose Enter.
5. Select the new format.
6. Copy the format of a device type for which this format is already in use. Then choose Copy format, enter the required data and then choose Copy. This copies all the template's actions and attributes into your new format.

You can also copy individual actions from a format. To do this, select the desired action (printer initialization, for example) and choose Copy action, enter the required data and choose Copy.

7. Save your device type format.
