Specifying the maximum simplex value
This section describes the procedure for specifying the number of simplex pages that the system prints in duplex mode before clearing the paper path and switching to simplex mode. This capability allows you to switch between duplex and simplex mode within a single job, with less degradation to the throughput speed.
When the IPS is printing in duplex mode and encounters a simplex page, the system may need to clear the paper path of all duplex sheets before changing to simplex mode. This clearing process may delay throughput. You can postpone this clearing process by printing simplex pages in duplex mode and specifying the number of pages, after which the system changes to simplex mode. Until the number of simplex pages you specify is sent, any simplex pages are printed in duplex mode with a blank page on the back, thus providing the appearance of simplex.
Note: When you print simulated simplex, the blank back pages are counted as billable pages by the billing meter.
Note: The print engine also performs simulated simplex independent of the IPS system controller. Blank back pages created by the print engine are not counted as billable pages by the billing meter. The print engine performs simulated simplex when the job changes plex every six pages or less.
To specify the maximum number of simplex pages to be printed in duplex mode:
1.From the Configuration menu, select Maximum Simplex. The Maximum Simplex window displays.
