NOTE: The features that appear in the job ticket fields and list boxes on the Setup window vary depending on which features are available from the job ticket settings that you select or are supported by the printer that you are using. Refer to the Job ticket features guide to determine which features are supported by the printer that you selected.
Accessing the Setup window
To open the Setup window in order to specify job ticket parameters, select [Setup...] on the XDS window.
NOTE: The Printer Setup window is not available on Macintosh systems.
Accessing job ticket features for XDS Plus
You can specify a wide range of parameters for the job that you are printing. On the XDS Plus window, the [Job Settings] icon gives you access to tab windows on which you make specifications for the job that you are printing. This set of parameter specifications for a job is called a “job ticket.”
A job ticket specifies the set of printing options that the system will use for a job. Every time you print a job, you must specify or create a job ticket for it. The information in this job ticket accompanies the job to the printer and gives the printer instructions on how to print the job.
You can apply this set of specifications to your current print job only, or you can save them as a job ticket (.xpf) file and retrieve the file later for use with other jobs.
Creating a new job ticket
You can create a new ticket for a job at the time you are sending the job to print, or you can create a job ticket when you are not currently printing and save it on your workstation disk to use with a job that you print later.
Follow these steps to create a job ticket:
1.Select a printer queue. Refer to “Selecting a print queue,” earlier in this chapter, for the procedure.
2.Select the [Job Settings] icon. The Files tab window is displayed, along with a set of other tabs that give you access to other job parameters that you may specify.
