    Use this feature to customize the internal CIP3 tags in the PrintLink PPF file. The CIP3 and CIP4 PPF file specification establishes an open standard for exchanging information among print production devices from multiple vendors, including platesetters, and presses.

PageSection is only populated if you enable it in the sample file and select Generic Newspaper Press Interface from the Press Interface list in the PrintLink section of the process template.

    With the tags, you can now use custom naming variables, such as Sheet or Job, for the internal CIP tags. All of the Prinergy Evo variables that work for external naming will now work for the CIP tags. For a listing of the custom naming variables, see Tell me more about custom file naming.

    Changing default press interface settings
    You can edit the PrintLink configuration file to override the following press interface defaults. You activate the tag by removing the crosshatch (#) and then changing the default value (for example, from =false to =true).
    #AdmInkColors=true (option to add spot colors in L*A*B. This is useful for Brisque customers who are migrating to Prinergy and use Heidelberg Reader Stations.)
    #AlwaysFront=true (option to output backs to fronts.)
    #SwapFrontswithBacks=true (to output so that back data appears before front data)
    #ReplaceUnderscoresFromJobName=false
    #RotateWithPreviewMatrix=false
    #OutputJDF=false
    #OutputLowPageNumber=false
    #UseImpoNameForAdmJobName=true
    #UseSigNumInSheetNum=false
    #UseImpoNameInFilename=true

    For the AdmnJobName=%job% tag, if your Prinergy Evo job name is Docket12345 then the resulting CIP tag will look like AdmJobName (Docket 12345).
