IPDS Menu Item PRINT MODE Value ENH* STD CACHING ON* OFF EARLY COMPL OFF* ON IPDS PORT COAX* TX TRING ETHER Description v ENH (ENHANCED)-the printer prints at 600 DPI which produces optimal print quality and slower printer performance. v STD (STANDARD)-the printer prints at 300 DPI which produces good print quality and optimal printer performance. Notes: 1. To specify an IPDS resolution of 240, 600, or AUTO, you must set PRINT MODE to ENH. (Use the RESOLUTION item on the IPDS Menu to specify the IPDS resolution.) 2. If you change PRINT MODE, power off and then power on the printer for the new value to take effect. Specifies whether or not to use caching for repeated overlays. v ON-the printer uses caching, which provides better performance for jobs with repeated overlays, but uses more memory. v OFF-the printer does not use caching, which requires less memory but provides less performance for jobs with repeated overlays. Note: Overlay caching is recommend for repeated overlays. Overlay caching does not improve performance with non-overlay IPDS data or overlays that are used only once or infrequently. Turns early print completion on or off for IPDS data sent over the twinax attachment. To turn early completion on or off for non-IPDS data over the coax attachment, use the EARLY COMPL item on the Coax Setup Menu. EARLY COMPL displays on the IPDS Menu only when the twinax network card is installed. v OFF-the printer waits until the job is physically complete to signal the host that the job is complete. v ON-the printer signals the host that the job is complete as soon as the IPDS data is formatted. Setting EARLY COMPL=ON may improve print performance, but may also degrade recovery and cause lost data from some printing problems, such as jams. Specifies the attachment you use for IPDS jobs. Note: You can print IPDS from more than one port; setting this item, therefore, does not restrict you from printing from multiple ports. Chapter 6. Operator Panel Menus 117

IPDS Menu Item
Value
Description
PRINT MODE
ENH*
STD
v
ENH (ENHANCED)—the printer prints at 600 DPI which
produces optimal print quality and slower printer
performance.
v
STD (STANDARD)—the printer prints at 300 DPI which
produces good print quality and optimal printer
performance.
Notes:
1.
To specify an IPDS resolution of 240, 600, or AUTO, you
must set PRINT MODE to ENH. (Use the RESOLUTION
item on the IPDS Menu to specify the IPDS resolution.)
2.
If you change PRINT MODE, power off and then power
on the printer for the new value to take effect.
CACHING
ON*
OFF
Specifies whether or not to use caching for repeated
overlays.
v
ON—the printer uses caching, which provides better
performance for jobs with repeated overlays, but uses
more memory.
v
OFF—the printer does not use caching, which requires
less memory but provides less performance for jobs with
repeated overlays.
Note:
Overlay caching is recommend for repeated overlays.
Overlay caching does not improve performance with
non-overlay IPDS data or overlays that are used only once
or infrequently.
EARLY COMPL
OFF*
ON
Turns early print completion on or off for IPDS data sent
over the twinax attachment. To turn early completion on or
off for non-IPDS data over the coax attachment, use the
EARLY COMPL item on the Coax Setup Menu. EARLY
COMPL displays on the IPDS Menu only when the twinax
network card is installed.
v
OFF—the printer waits until the job is physically
complete to signal the host that the job is complete.
v
ON—the printer signals the host that the job is complete
as soon as the IPDS data is formatted.
Setting EARLY COMPL=ON may improve print
performance, but may also degrade recovery and cause lost
data from some printing problems, such as jams.
IPDS PORT
COAX*
TX
TRING
ETHER
Specifies the attachment you use for IPDS jobs.
Note:
You can print IPDS from more than one port; setting
this item, therefore, does not restrict you from printing from
multiple ports.
