Xerox DocuTech 6100 Production Publisher Betriebsanweisung

DocuSP 4.2 provides a mechanism to: 

♦  Determine all the resources required by a RIP-input job 

before scheduling the job for printing. 

♦  Allow the customer to choose between this new scheduling 

mode and the existing modes. 

♦  Prevent a job from being erroneously scheduled in the 

event that some of the required media is unavailable. 

The scheduling modes that are available under DocuSP 4.2 
are: 

♦  First-in, first-out (FIFO) 
♦  Resource-Based (RBS) 
♦  Enhanced Resource-Based (Enhanced RBS) 

In DocuSP 4.2, the common controller is extended to support 
21 more paper sources for PCL. Under DocuSP 4.1, the PCL 
decomposer provided a total of 6 PCL paper sources, which 
does not meet the capabilities of certain systems; for example, 
the Nuvera product may have up to 12 physical feeds by 
allowing customers to add external paper feeder modules. 
With DocuSP 4.2, customers with systems that have more 
than 6 trays can map a unique PCL paper source to each of 
their trays. 

Intelligent Print Data Stream (IPDS) is a sequence of 
information transmitted by an IBM host computer as directed 
by the Print Service Facility (PSF). In addition to delivering 
print information, the IPDS data stream performs printer 
control functions and shares job status information. 

The DocuSP IPDS gateway is now available in DocuSP 4.2 
and is configured by means of a Graphical User Interface 
(GUI), featuring drop-down menus, tabs, and icons from which 
to manage the DocuSP IPDS functions. DocuSP IPDS 
supports the TCP/IP and online channel interfaces. 

IPDS is not available on the Sun W1100Z (x86 AMD) 
controller for the DocuTech and DocuPrint products.  IPDS is 
not available for the DocuColor or iGen3 products. 

DocuSP IPDS does not currently support any non-Xerox Front 
End Processors.  Certain FEPs may work successfully but 
interoperability is not guaranteed. 

Refer to the DocuSP IPDS User Guide for additional 
information on IPDS.
