Method and apparatus for processing an electronic document file for printing using configuration data to dynamically mimic print parameter information used by different printer

摘要

A method for processing an electronic document file for printing may include receiving an electronic document file at a print driver for a select printer; determining the electronic document file includes different print parameter information for a different printer based on configuration data; identifying and transforming the different print parameter information to select print parameter information based on mapping information; processing document print parameter information associated with the electronic document file, where a portion of the document print parameter information was transformed from the different print parameter information; and sending a print stream to the select printer for printing the electronic document file consistent with the different print parameter information. A related system may include a storage device and a processor. The storage device may include the print driver and configuration data with the mapping information. The print driver may include input; filter; mapping; processing; and output modules.
