BASIC CONCEPTS

Special processing

Special processing features distinguish the Xerox LPS from an impact printer. By using commands such as RFEED, ROFFSET, and RPAGE you can specify that certain logical functions including: switching paper trays, offsetting certain pages or logically repositioning a page, be performed during the printing process. Refer to the Xerox DocuPrint 180 LPS PDL Reference for more information on these command functions.

DJDE Dynamic Job Descriptor Entry (DJDE) command enables you to modify the printing environment dynamically. These commands are inserted into the input data stream to modify command characteristics of the existing JDE. DJDEs can take effect on a report-to-report, page-to-page, and record-to-record basis. Refer to the Xerox DocuPrint 180 LPS PDL Reference for more information.

CME A Copy Modification Entry (CME) command enables you to replace certain parts of a report with predefined static data on selected copies or to specify font changes within the variable data. Refer to the Xerox DocuPrint 180 LPS PDL Reference for more information.

Output

The final production phase is output. The Xerox DocuPrint 180 LPS provides powerful finishing and disbursement features. You can have a true cover-to-cover printing process on any job. This means that an inventory stock report job could have:

Blue card stock front cover, with the title in a 24-point bold font

Forty-nine pages of equipment inventory, with the last page designed to summarize totals

Thirty-seven pages of equipment description, with pricing information removed and a shaded grid filling all page columns

A matching blue card stock back cover printed on the reverse side with “END OF REPORT” in a 14-point bold font.

Each copy of the inventory report can be offset in a stacker bin (no offsetting in the sample tray) for easy identification, with a routing sheet on top of each offset stack which contains such information as “Jones and Smith Supplies, Inc.” This particular feature is useful when individual copies must be separated for binding or distribution to different groups. By adding the optional bypass transport and a third-party finisher to your Xerox DocuPrint 180 LPS, you expand your finishing choices for your report to include options such as making it into a booklet and shrink wrapping it.
