4635 LPS SOFTWARE COMPONENTS
Output task The output task uses the page logs written by the input task to load fonts in the font memory and variable data in the CD. It causes paper to feed from the indicated tray and manages report integrity with multiple checks. It sends the page buffer information to the CD and coordinates the activity of the CD/IG and RIP with the printer. In addition, Output manages delivery of the printed pages to the correct bins and performs page recovery if necessary.
Print description language compiler The PDL task loads the PDL compiler and looks in the JSL library for the file to be compiled. Then it analyzes the JSL statements and creates the object module (the JDL file).
Forms description language compiler The FDL task loads the FDL compiler and looks in the FSL library for the file to be compiled. Then it analyzes the FSL statements and creates the object module (the FRM file).
Host interface processor task The HIP task controls LPS communications with an online host. It transfers SNA/SDLC or BSC files from the host to the LPS, storing or printing them as directed. HIP also transfers files from the host for storage and transfers Interpress files from a Xerox Ethernet to the LPS for printing.
Report (RPT) task Works in connection with the Input task.
Printer Software
The Printer Software works in conjunction with the OSS (system controller) to print your job. The system controller interprets the user instructions contained in JDLs, DJDEs, and operator input, as well as the data being printed on each page. The system controller, driven by the OSS, sends this information to the printer. Once the information reaches the printer, it is the Printer Software that identifies the best way to carry out the task.
User Interface Software and User Dialog Software
As with the OSS and Printer Software, the System UI Software and the User Interface Dialog interact together to control your PC UI. Along with establishing and managing the communication between the PC UI and the printer, the User Interface Software displays the objects on the UI screen and performs the actions input by the operator, as specified within the UI Dialog.
