Finishing | System Guide |
Creating jobs to use subset finishing
It is important that jobs intended to be printed using subset finishing be enabled with the following:
•PostScript code (using the “setpagedevice” operator)
•Variable Data Intelligent PostScript PrintWare (VIPP) version 2.0 or later.
NOTE: The Xerox Production Print Services (XPPS) client software does not support subset finishing at this time.
Subset finishing can also be performed at the DigiPath workstation through the Document Scan and Make Ready application.
Subset Offset (Page Level Jog)
The printer has the ability to offset on a page level. This support allows VIPP to be utilized for offset type applications. This ability allows jobs to be sent as one larger file with page level offset commands.
The term “Jog” is used to initiate an offset behavior.
•setpagedevice jog 0 (The offset command is “OFF”)
•setpagedevice jog 3 (The offset command is “ON”)
A job with a multiple copy count with a “jog 3” should force offsets between each distinct set. A job with a copy count of 1 can contain “jog 0” or “jog 3” on a page by page basis. The system will alternate offsets between each alternating jog 3 and jog 0 command.
The following information should be considered when using the “Jog” command:
•The first jog command on a page will be honored and all others will be ignored.
•Multiple cases of jog 3 without the corresponding job 0’s will be ignored.
•The Printer Manager’s setting of offset “ON” or “OFF” should not impact the action of the PDL level jog commands. For example, if the Printer Manager’s offset is set to “OFF” and a job has a jog 3, then the sets should be offset from one another.
