Installation and Setup NOTE: If an image shift is done at the IPDS queue level, then the banner page of the IPDS job will contain the image shift as well. Therefore, the data on the banner page may be shifted off the page. Queue Properties Following are selections relating to IPDS queues: Settings Select the Input / Format Feature Access Button (FAB). Under Input, select [Streaming]. Output The default setting for the Output Order is System Specified. For most products, this is N-1 (Descending) output order. NOTE: This setting can cause a problem if set processing (staple or some other finishing operation) is not being performed. The problem occurs because the streaming IPDS job may be too large to receive and re-order. The result of this situation is that, because there is no logical end to trigger the re-order, a portion of the IPDS job would be received but not print. Unless N-1 is required to perform set processing, the Output Order should be changed to 1N (Ascending) output order. PDL Settings IPDS User Guide Select the IPDS FAB. Use Resolution to determine the resolution of the output data sent to the print engine. Only values of 300 and 600 dpi are supported. For print engines that do not have native support for 300 dpi, the output will be simulated. Halftone Resolution NOTE: The IPDS Halftone Resolution feature is available only for all supported monochrome, and highlight color products. In Advanced Settings window, the resolution and the associated Halftone are displayed. Select [Setup...] to choose the halftone, for instance, choose: 53, 85, or 106 line per inch screens. The actual selection of halftones offered depends on the particular product and resolution. For each resolution setting, select the halftone to associate from the pull-down menu. When the Resolution (dpi) is selected, the associated halftone screen will automatically be used for all jobs until it is changed. For print resolution values that are also supported by PostScript, IPDS uses the same default Halftone selection used by 2- 5

Installation and Setup
NOTE:
If an image shift is done at the IPDS queue level, then the
banner page of the IPDS job will contain the image shift as well.
Therefore, the data on the banner page may be shifted off the
page.
Queue Properties
Following are selections relating to IPDS queues:
Settings
Select the Input / Format Feature Access Button (FAB).
Under
Input, select [Streaming].
Output
The default setting for the Output Order is System Specified. For
most products, this is N-1 (Descending) output order.
NOTE:
This setting can cause a problem if set processing (staple
or some other finishing operation) is not being performed.
The
problem occurs because the streaming IPDS job may be too large
to receive and re-order. The result of this situation is that, because
there is no logical end to trigger the re-order, a portion of the IPDS
job would be received but not print. Unless N-1 is required to
perform set processing, the Output Order should be changed to 1-
N (Ascending) output order.
PDL Settings
Select the IPDS FAB.
Use Resolution to determine the resolution
of the output data sent to the print engine. Only values of 300 and
600 dpi are supported.
For print engines that do not have native
support for 300 dpi, the output will be simulated.
Halftone Resolution
NOTE:
The IPDS Halftone Resolution feature is available only for
all supported monochrome, and highlight color products.
In Advanced Settings window, the resolution and the associated
Halftone are displayed.
Select [Setup...] to choose the halftone,
for instance, choose: 53, 85, or 106 line per inch screens. The
actual selection of halftones offered depends on the particular
product and resolution.
For each resolution setting, select the
halftone to associate from the pull-down menu.
When the
Resolution (dpi) is selected, the associated halftone screen will
automatically be used for all jobs until it is changed.
For print resolution values that are also supported by PostScript,
