PFS Suppression
This option is useful for both XDPM and XPPM data streams, and it allows the user to control how the OPTIMA will suppress PFSs for the data it receives on the twinax address.
To define this option, use the arrow keys to move the cursor on the Xerox Special Options screen to the words “PFS Suppression=” (Suppress PFSs in XES jobs is the default), and press ENTER. The following choices will be displayed:
•Don’t Suppress PFSs
•Auto Suppress PFSs in XES
•Always Suppress PFSs
•Suppress all but Bold/Und
•Auto, but not Bold/Und
“Don’t Suppress PFSs” tells the OPTIMA not to suppress PFSs for the data stream received on the twinax address. This option gives the host full control over document formatting.
“Auto Suppress in XES” will cause the OPTIMA to suppress all PFSs except the CR>, LF> and FF> PFSs during XDPM print jobs. The XDPM job is delimited by one of the job start commands — <UDK>+P, <UDK>+Q, <UDK>+M or <UDK>+N. The PFS suppression will continue until the XDPM job end command (<UDK>+X) is received. This option is useful only in XDPM data streams.
“Always Suppress PFSs” will cause the OPTIMA to suppress all PFSs for the data streams received from this twinax address. This allows the data stream to format the page without conflicts with system formatting requests. This option is very useful for printing XPPM data streams. If the twinax address is receiving XPPM data that will be sent to a printer in XPPM mode, this option should always be selected.
“Suppress all but Bold/Und” tells the OPTIMA to suppress all PFSs except BOLD ON>, BOLD OFF>, BSBOLD1>, BSBOLD2>, UNDL ON> and UNDLOFF>.
