If you click Original Defaults, the Splash server 

resets all print options to match the factory defaults.

Click OK to save your custom set of print 

defaults.

The Splash server applies the default print options in 
the following situations:

•

The Splash server automatically applies default 

print options to graphics files (EPS, TIFF, and PDF 
formats) that are placed in the Drop Folder.

•

The Splash server automatically applies default 

print options to graphics files that are dragged to the 
Active or Hold queues in the Splash server window.

•

If the Splash server receives a graphics file from a 

client on a TCP/IP network, the server automatically 
applies default print options to the job.

•

When you place a PostScript file in the Drop 

Folder, Waiting queue, or Hold queue, the Splash 
server applies the default print options only if the file 
was not created with the Splash client printer driver.

For jobs that are not sent to a printer with a Splash 
PPD, a default set of Splash printer options are 
applied.

Job defaults are applied to jobs from the following 
sources:

•

Jobs from UNIX clients

•

Macintosh jobs using non-Splash PPDs

•

Windows 2000/NT and Win95/98 jobs using non-

Splash PPDs

The job defaults are set at the Splash server.

Splash server defaults are applied to graphics files. 
The defaults are those used for PostScript files, in 
addition to the following:

•

Paper size

•

Center image on paper

•

Scale image to fit paper size

•

Image orientation (landscape/portrait)

•

Image title (none, file name, or specified text)

The Splash server has an automatic RIP-While-Print 
function. Automatic RIP-While-Print reduces print 
wait time by ensuring that the CPSI is never idle while 
print jobs are present. 

RIP While Print tracks all print jobs including jobs 
that are in transit to the Splash server, and directs 
CPSI processing of jobs where the currently 
processing job has highest priority and is completed 
first.

The Splash server has an automatic RIP While 
Receive function. Automatic RIP While Receive 
reduces print wait time by ensuring that the CPSI is 
never idle while print jobs are present. RIP While 
Receive tracks all print jobs including jobs that are in 
transit to the Splash server, and directs CPSI 
processing of jobs as follows:

•

The currently processing job has highest priority 

and is completed first.

•

Completely spooled jobs are processed next. If 

there are two or more completely spooled jobs 
waiting, the jobs are processed in the order they were 
finished being received by the Splash server, 
regardless of the size of the job.

•

If no completely spooled jobs are waiting, RIP 

While Receive begins CPSI processing on a job as it 
is being received by the Splash server. If two or more 
jobs are in transit to the Splash server, the job that 
began transmitting to the server first is processed. All 
other jobs in transit are automatically spooled.

If an error occurs, the job is returned to the queue 
when spooling finishes. The job is restarted when the 
error is corrected. It is not necessary to resend the job 
from the client.
