OUTPUT OSTK parameter: points to note

When using tabs and ordered stock:

•All applications that are printed on a tab have pages formatted for tab printing. If there is a PDE switch in the job stream that causes the BEGIN value to be shifted off the page, such as BEGIN = (.18, 8.6), the stock criteria must already be met before the new BEGIN is processed. This sequence allows the input task to ignore the BEGIN value when checking for tab stocks.

•The XJDC compiler ensures the minimum value for mod is 1 and the maximum is 255 (decimal). It also ensures the value of pos is greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to mod.

•Printing on tabs: Following are some considerations for printing on tabs.

–Use the OSTK option before trying to run a tab job.

–The printer prints on tabs in both simplex and duplex modes.

–Imaging area: When the printer is printing on 9 inch (229

mm)stock or 8.5 inch (216 mm) stock with half inch (13

mm)tabs, the full imaging area of 9 inches (229 mm) is enabled. It is limited, however, by the amount of image shift that is enabled.
