Hints and Tips Color Systems System Guide General Comments The time required to process a job can depend on various influences. The time required to process a job is made up of 4 components: • Time for a client workstation to generate the Page Description Language (PDL, i.e. PostScript, HP-PCL, TIFF, etc.). • Time to transfer the job PDL across the net and be marked as received by the DocuSP. • Time required to RIP the PDL to produce the bit maps that the print engine can use. • Time required to write the RIPped bit maps to the print engine and generate paper. Time used to generate the PDL This component is strongly influenced by the speed of the client workstation, the print driver being used by the application, and the complexity of the pages to be printed. Time used to transfer PDL This component is influenced by the speed of the network connection between the client workstation and the DocuSP. It is also impacted by the number of workstations on the network, by the configuration of the net (i.e. number and speed of the gateways and routers and by the number of simultaneous network connections that the DocuSP has to manage). Finally it is impacted by the complexity of the pages being printed (i.e. the size of the PDL files being transferred). Time required to RIP PDL This component is influenced by the efficiency of the PDL to be RIPped, the complexity of the pages being RIPped, the number and resolution of images included, and the media/color space transforms being performed on the data before imaging/printing. 10-2 Common Controller

General Comments
The time required to process a job can depend on various
influences. The time required to process a job is made up of 4
components:
•
Time for a client workstation to generate the Page
Description Language (PDL, i.e. PostScript, HP-PCL, TIFF,
etc.).
•
Time to transfer the job PDL across the net and be marked as
received by the DocuSP.
•
Time required to RIP the PDL to produce the bit maps that
the print engine can use.
•
Time required to write the RIPped bit maps to the print engine
and generate paper.
Time used to generate the PDL
This component is strongly influenced by the speed of the client
workstation, the print driver being used by the application, and
the complexity of the pages to be printed.
Time used to transfer PDL
This component is influenced by the speed of the network
connection between the client workstation and the DocuSP. It is
also impacted by the number of workstations on the network, by
the configuration of the net (i.e. number and speed of the
gateways and routers and by the number of simultaneous
network connections that the DocuSP has to manage). Finally it
is impacted by the complexity of the pages being printed (i.e. the
size of the PDL files being transferred).
Time required to RIP PDL
This component is influenced by the efficiency of the PDL to be
RIPped, the complexity of the pages being RIPped, the number
and resolution of images included, and the media/color space
transforms being performed on the data before imaging/printing.
