Xerox Paris, a document system Support & Software Betriebsanweisung

Also, if the printer is being shared with other applications, (e.g. for word-
processing), PARIS must be instructed to reset the resources at the beginning of
each job. This naturally means the resources will be sent every time the job is
printed and has the effect of increasing the transmission time to the printer.

Refer to the section ‘XPD Resource Management Commands for PCL and
PostScript printers’ on page 25.

 

PARIS provides you with the option to control the number of characters
downloaded in a character set. This may be necessary if you are using a printer
that requires the resources to be sent every time a job is printed. Refer to
Appendix A, ‘Modifying the Character Selection Table

’.

PCL4 printers

PCL4 printers are not supported by PARIS.

III. Postscript printers (no permanent storage)

As part of its job end processing, Postscript printers go through a clean-up. As
a result, when printing to Postscript printers (those with no permanent storage),
PARIS must send all resources required for a job at the beginning of each job.

Refer to the section ‘XPD Resource Management Commands for PCL and
PostScript printers’ on page 25.

IV.  Windows GDI

When printing using a manufacturer supplied GDI driver, PARIS passes total
responsibility for the downloading and management of resources to Windows.

 

Windows GDI does not understand bitmap fonts. If the application contains
bitmap fonts, Windows passes the information to the driver. It is up to the
printer driver to provide a solution to managing the fonts.

Note also that bitmap fonts will not appear in the Font List if a GDI printer
driver is selected. Refer to Chapter 20, ‘Using the Font List function’ of the
PARIS Designer Reference Manual

 and ‘Adding a font to the font list’ in

Chapter 11 of the PARIS Designer User’s Manual
