“Incomplete” Rows, Stored Jobs

Page 41 highlights

• Measure all sheets - each sheet in every row of sheets will be measured, and reported to the server. This aids in accurate placement of edge-to-edge images. In this mode, use of the alignment pins is unnecessary. • Measure first sheet only - only the first row is measured, and those measurements are used for all subsequent rows. Use the alignment pins to locate the sheets in subsequent rows. This speeds throughput by eliminating the measurement step for each row. "Incomplete" Rows You can print any number of copies in a multi-sheet N-UP job, even if the total number does not divide evenly into the number of sheets per row. Typically, only the last row would have a different number of sheets. For example: in a twenty-sheet job, you might be able to fit three sheets in each row, so you might print six rows of three sheets, plus one row of two sheets (6x3=18, 1x2=2, 18+2=20). If the last row is a partial row, load the sheets from the user end toward the service end. Stored Jobs Whenever the printer receives a print job from the RIP, the job is automatically stored in the printer's memory, on a rotating firstin-first-out (FIFO) basis. You can "lock" a job to prevent it from being rotated out, but this reduces the amount of memory available for subsequent jobs to be saved. The printer can store up to ten jobs, with a total area of approximately 98 x 98 inches (2.49 x 2.49 m). Jobs RIPed at 600x300 dpi will take less memory to store than jobs RIPed at 600x600 dpi. If power is removed or the printer is restarted, these jobs are lost from the printer memory. If a job is too large to be saved, it is simply discarded from memory after printing. If a complete print job has been received from the RIP and you pause or cancel the print, it will still appear in the Stored Jobs listing. Stored Jobs can be viewed and managed from the control panel.

Measure all sheets
— each sheet in every row of sheets will
be measured, and reported to the server. This aids in accu-
rate placement of edge-to-edge images. In this mode, use of
the alignment pins is unnecessary.
Measure first sheet only
— only the first row is measured,
and those measurements are used for all subsequent rows.
Use the alignment pins to locate the sheets in subsequent
rows. This speeds throughput by eliminating the measure-
ment step for each row.
“Incomplete” Rows
You can print any number of copies in a multi-sheet N-UP job,
even if the total number does not divide evenly into the number
of sheets per row. Typically, only the last row would have a differ-
ent number of sheets.
For example: in a twenty-sheet job, you might be able to fit three
sheets in each row, so you might print six rows of three sheets,
plus one row of two sheets (6x3=18, 1x2=2, 18+2=20). If the last
row is a partial row, load the sheets from the user end toward the
service end.
Stored Jobs
Whenever the printer receives a print job from the RIP, the job is
automatically stored in the printer’s memory, on a rotating first-
in-first-out (FIFO) basis. You can “lock” a job to prevent it from
being rotated out, but this reduces the amount of memory avail-
able for subsequent jobs to be saved.
The printer can store up to ten jobs, with a total area of approxi-
mately 98 x 98 inches (2.49 x 2.49 m). Jobs RIPed at 600x300
dpi will take less memory to store than jobs RIPed at 600x600
dpi. If power is removed or the printer is restarted, these jobs are
lost from the printer memory.
If a job is too large to be saved, it is simply discarded from mem-
ory after printing. If a complete print job has been received from
the RIP and you pause or cancel the print, it will still appear in
the Stored Jobs listing.
Stored Jobs can be viewed and managed from the control panel.
