Printing

different platforms. The imported TIFFs may print with a different orientation relative to the PostScript image.

Prior to Print Server 3.1, the controller utilized a conversion tool (TIFF to PostScript) to process and print TIFF files. A native TIFF decomposer has now been implemented to directly process TIFF files for printing. This improves the TIFF printing performance for certain types of files. Decomposer level adjustments are also now available for the TIFF decomposer at the Queue level.

NOTE: Multipage TIFF files are supported. Single TIFF files can contain multiple TIFF images to be processed and printed.
