# Custom Ports

You can use the Custom Ports functionality for the predefined destinations rule. To do so, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to **Lasernet** > **Setup** > **Lists** > **Custom ports**.

1. The Custom Port predefined destinations rule creates a tag in the XML file sent to Lasernet. Lasernet can then use the tag as a trigger.

1. When adding a new Custom Port record, you can select the file format you need from the drop-down combo box in the **Expected file format** column.
2. This format is then defined in the XML file **JobInfo** section.

If a predefined destination with a custom port is added, the file format on the predefined destination takes the highest priority.

To import custom ports from the Lasernet server, follow these steps:

1. Click the **Update custom ports** button available on the top menu of the **Custom ports** page.
2. As a result, custom port names are automatically taken from Lasernet, and the list of custom ports is populated on the **Custom ports** page.

Note

Remember that you get all active modules from the Lasernet setup.

It is possible to enable/disable a custom port.

Only active custom ports are shown in the lookup on the print dialog.
