System Guide TIFF orientation Printing and queue management The Print Server Save Feature stores TIFF images in different orientations on the DocuTech/DocuPrint 75/90 and the DocuTech 61XX. This is done by design to optimize productivity and allow for the different finishing requirements of the print engines controlled by the Print Server software. The following products have these options: DocuTech 61xx -- The DocuTech 61xx finishes the trail edge of the pages and orients the image appropriately. DocuTech/DocuPrint 75/90 -- The DocuTech/DocuPrint 75/90 finishes the lead edge of the pages and orients the image properly. This difference can result in PostScript/VIPP files that call Decomposition Service TIFFs being incompatible across the different platforms. The imported TIFFs may print with a different orientation relative to the PostScript image. Prior to Print Server 3.1, the controller utilized a conversion tool (TIFF to PostScript) to process and print TIFF files. A native TIFF decomposer has now been implemented to directly process TIFF files for printing. This improves the TIFF printing performance for certain types of files.

Printing and queue management
TIFF orientation
The Print Server Save Feature stores TIFF images in different
orientations on the DocuTech/DocuPrint 75/90 and the DocuTech
61XX. This is done by design to optimize productivity and allow for
the different finishing requirements of the print engines controlled
by the Print Server software. The following products have these
options:
DocuTech 61xx -- The DocuTech 61xx finishes the trail edge of the
pages and orients the image appropriately.
DocuTech/DocuPrint 75/90 -- The DocuTech/DocuPrint 75/90
finishes the lead edge of the pages and orients the image
properly.
This difference can result in PostScript/VIPP files that call
Decomposition Service TIFFs being incompatible across the
different platforms. The imported TIFFs may print with a different
orientation relative to the PostScript image.
Prior to Print Server 3.1, the controller utilized a conversion tool
(TIFF to PostScript) to process and print TIFF files. A native TIFF
decomposer has now been implemented to directly process TIFF
files for printing. This improves the TIFF printing performance for
certain types of files. Decomposer level adjustments are also now
available for the TIFF decomposer at the Queue level.
NOTE:
Multipage TIFF files are supported. Single TIFF files can
contain multiple TIFF images to be processed and printed.
Supported TIFF tags
Below is a list of the TIFF tags supported by the Print Server
software.
Compression
Default = 1
The Print Server supports values of 1 (uncompressed), 2
(CCITT Modified Huffman RLE, 32773 (PackBits), 3 (CCITT
Group 3), and 4 (CCITT Group 4).
T4 Option
Default = 0
This is used to determine CCITT Group 3 one or two
dimensional coding.
Fill Order

The Print Server supports values of 1 and 2.
Image Width and Image Length
Default = none; values must be supplied.
Orientation
