4635 LPS SOFTWARE COMPONENTS

·Continuous printing even when excessive character and IG local density stress conditions occur (Interpress only). Refer to the Xerox 4635 LPS Operations Reference for additional information.

·Cluster printing (user-defined logical grouping of trays). Refer to the Xerox 4635 LPS Operations Reference and to the Xerox 4635 LPS Operator Guide for additional information.

·Printing of over 16 images on a page with Interpress and raster image processor (RIP). Refer to the Xerox 4635 LPS Operations Reference for additional information.

·Variable paper sizes up to the physical capacity of the feeder trays: 7 by 10 inches to 14.33 by 17 inches (178 by 254 mm to 279 by 432 mm, including A3, A4, B4, and B5). 7 by 10 inch thruput is enabled when the optional Paper Feeding Enhancement Kit is installed. Refer to the ª4635 LPS edgemarkingº section of this chapter for additional information.

·A two-way file transfer between the PC UI and the system controller hard disk.

·Full text editing in a window environment which supports scrolling and text editing using the mouse and keyboard, and allows you to print and edit concurrently.

·Controlled finished sets of documents using segment management software, and the optional bypass transport with a finisher attached.

Optional host-resident software packages

This section describes a few of the many host-resident software packages available for use with your 4635 LPS. For information on a specific program, please contact your site representative.

Xerox Pen Plotter Interface (XPPI)/DCF

and GDDM Interface (XDGI) XPPI/XDGI is a host-resident software package (on IBM MVS or VM/CMS) that translates computer-generated text and graphics into high-quality images that can be printed on a Xerox LPS. A host-independent version of XPPI/XDGI is also available for non- IBM users. Refer to XPPI/XDGI documentation for more information.

Host Forms Description Language

(HFDL) HFDL is a host-resident forms design software package (on IBM MVS or VM) that allows forms to be created, changed, and merged with data at the host for printing.

Xerox Printer Access Facility

(XPAF) XPAF enhances the capabilities and use of your LPS in an IBM MVS/XA environment. For example, it allows you to change printer destinations without restructuring the data stream. XPAF accepts numerous types of data streams, transforms or conditions them, and then sends them to the selected printer.

To users of IBM Advanced Function Printing (AFP), XPAF appears to be an extension of the IBM product.
