This page applies to Harlequin v13.1r0 and later; and to Harlequin MultiRIP but not Harlequin Core
There are four kinds of input plugin:
- Those providing the RIP with Page Description Language jobs.
- Those implementing PostScript language filters.
- Those implementing asynchronous actions, providing the ability to run restricted jobs during the interpretation of other PostScript language jobs.
- Those implementing progress devices, receiving and displaying information about jobs currently underway.
