GenPrint Program Notes

The INI options required for the GenPrint program are the same as those needed by the FAP2MET utility. In addition, there are other parameters which affect printing on Xerox printers. In the Print control group, or in the PrtType:XER control group,

CompileInstream = Yes or No

and in the RunMode control group,

DownLoadFAP = Yes or No

The CompileInStream=Yes and DownLoadFAP=Yes options load all of the FAP files in memory when the GenPrint program runs. This is slow, and is typically used only during testing and development. This mode does not need precompilation of FAP files into intermediate Metacode files.

For production environments, use the CompileInStream=No and DownLoadFAP=No options. This mode requires that you precompile the FAP files using the FAP2MET utility with the /SV parameter.

The precompiled Metacode files must be available to the GenPrint program in the MSTRRES\FORMS directory in Windows.
