Configuring Output Offsetting
The optional Offset Catch Tray supports offsetting output 
between successive jobs or multiple collated sets of a 
single job. Offsetting is controlled from the Control Panel 
or via CentreWare DP.
The following conditions must be met before offsetting 
occurs between jobs:
• The offset function occurs only between successive 
jobs that are both destined for the Offset Catch Tray.
For example, a print job may contain a banner sheet in 
PCL that precedes a PostScript print job. If they are 
both directed to the Offset Catch Tray, the banner 
sheet is offset from the PostScript job. If the banner 
sheet is directed to the standard output bin (no offset 
capability) and the PostScript job is directed to the 
Offset Catch Tray, offset does not occur between the 
banner sheet and the PostScript job. If, however, the 
next job is directed to the Offset Catch Tray, offset will 
occur between the PostScript job and the next job.
• The offset function occurs between successive jobs 
directed to the Offset Catch Tray only if the jobs 
contain data that results in a sheet being printed and 
delivered to the bin.
For example, if a PCL job contains <ESCAPE>E 
sequences at the beginning of a job and there is no 
printable data separating these commands, the offset 
does not occur (even though these escape sequences 
are valid job boundaries).
