Fuji Frontier PIC 2.6 Options:

  • Order File Location Dest: Enter the location of the ADPCPrints folder on the PIC using the UNC naming convention.

**Note: If the PIC machine is called "PIC390", then the setting should be changed from C:\FujiPrints\OrderFiles to \\PIC390\ADPCPrints\. Most machines use \\PIC\ADPCPrints.

  • Order File Location Temp: The UNC path of the temporary drop folder on the local machine printing the order.

**Note: If the APM or Lab 50 machine is called "LAB", then these settings should be changed from C:\APM-XXXX\Frontier\FrontierTemp\to \\LAB\Frontier\FrontierTemp.

  • Image File Location: The UNC path of the image storage folder on the local machine printing the order.

**Note: If the APM or Lab 50 machine is called "LAB", then these settings should be changed from C:\APM-XXXX\Frontier\Images\to \\LAB\Frontier\Images.

  • Wait for Printer Completion: If enabled, will pause all APM or Lab 50 printing until the current order has been processed. Recommended setting is False.
  • Printer Timeout: The amount of time to wait for an order to finish printing before displaying an error communicating with the PIC. This value is set to 0 by default and should not be changed.
  • Rush: Should be set to 0, unless all APM and/or Lab 50 orders take precedence over other jobs. If so, then change the setting to 1.
  • Source: Creates a tag in the order file that reports to the PIC where the order originated. This may be changed to any value.
  • Negative Number Prepend: If additional information is needed for all orders coming through from the APM and/or Lab 50 software, enter the information here. Otherwise, it is recommended to keep this field blank.
  • Purge Days: Enter the number of days that the images should reside in the image file location folder. If this value is set to 0, the images will remain indefinitely. Any images that are older than the given number of days will be erased upon boot up.
  • Order Number Digits: Used to determine the number of digits displayed on the PIC screen from orders that are sent from APM kiosks or Lab 50. Recommended default is 6.
  • Glossy Surface Code: The PIC code to use for prints sent to the glossy surface. This is used in PIC 3.0 software only.
  • Matte Surface Code: The PIC code to use for prints sent to the matte surface. This is used in PIC 3.0 software only.
  • Use original file names for Images: Set this option to True to use the customer’s file names for the images transferring to the PIC.
  • Append Surface to Customers Name: Adds a surface setting to the customer name so that when it shows up in the PIC, it will also give the PIC operator an indication on what paper finish to use. Default setting is False.
  • CD Product Code: The PIC Product code to use for processing Image CDs at the printer. The default value is CD.
