Installation and setup Printing a trace job within DocuSP IPS Manager During the installation process, three sample DocuSP IPDS trace jobs are provided. These jobs can be used to either verify printer operability after the DocuSP IPDS software is installed or for diagnostic purposes: • afptrace.let - prints a sample IPDS job formatted for US Letter paper • afptrace.a4- prints a sample IPDS job formatted for A4 paper • scfont.trc- prints a sample IPDS job using resident outline fonts formatted for either US Letter or A4 paper. In order for the trace scfont.trc to print correctly, the IBM AFP fonts must be loaded on the printer and Enhanced Font Support must be enabled. NOTE: These jobs test only DocuSP IPDS processing on the printer. The trace files are set up to use the installation default parameters. If you plan to run the A4 trace instead of the US Letter trace, change the Media Definition for the DocuSP IPDS Tray 1 from US Letter to A4. In DocuSP IPDS, you must map a medium to each DocuSP IPDS tray specified in the IPDS data stream. For the installation verification jobs, use US Letter or A4 media. Refer to the DocuSP IPDS on-line help for the specific procedures. Printing a test job from the host To verify host-to-printer communications, perform these steps to print a test job from the host: Step 1. Ensure DocuSP IPDS is running and is reporting a status of DocuSP IPDS Idle. Step 2. Start the logical printer from the host and verify that it is active. Step 3. Send an IPDS print data stream from the host to the DocuSP 2-8 Xerox DocuSP IPDS User Guide
