Spire CX250 Color Server Network Printers

For Macintosh and Windows networks, the Spire CX250 color server provides three default network printers, also known as virtual printers.

Virtual printers are used for automating workflows, which then define job streaming. They contain preset workflows that are automatically applied to all print jobs processed with that virtual printer. There is no need to reset job settings for each job, thus increasing printing efficiency.

Note: The job (print) parameters set in the job (from the client) override the parameters set in the virtual printer.

The three default virtual printers are:

•SpoolStore

Files are spooled directly to the Storage window and await operator processing. You can only import PDL files (such as: PS, PDF, VIPP, VPS) to the spool store, not RIPped - RTP files.

•ProcessPrint

Files are processed and printed directly to the Xerox DocuColor 240/ 250 printer-copier via the Spire CX250 color server.

•ProcessStore

Files are automatically processed and stored in RTP format. After processing, the files are stored in the Storage window of the Spire CX250 color server until the operator re-submits them for printing.

With printing workflows tailored to your job requirements, the Spire

CX250 color server enables you to:

•Define new virtual printers

•Choose from which virtual printer to print
