Virtual Printable Area Considerations

Ordinarily an IPDS printer is expected to report exceptions to the host when data on a page does not

fit within the virtual printable area (VPA). The following queue attributes are not used in Xerox

FreeFlow® Print Server IPDS VPA calculations and can result in data being shifted or rotated out of the

printable area without notifying the host.

• Rotation

• Image Shift

•Alignment

Note Use the Stock Margins feature for shifting data and having it used as part of the VPA

calculations.

See the Programming Stock Margins section for additional information.

Note If an image shift is done at the IPDS queue level, then the banner page of the IPDS job will

contain the image shift as well. Therefore, the data on the banner page may be shifted off the

page.

Queue Properties

Following are selections relating to IPDS queues:

Settings

Select the Input / Format Feature Access Button (FAB). Under Input, select [Streaming].

Output

The default setting for the Output Order is System Specified. For most products, this is N-1

(Descending) output order.

Note This setting can cause a problem if set processing (staple or some other finishing operation)

is not being performed. The problem occurs because the streaming IPDS job may be too large to

receive and re-order. The result of this situation is that, because there is no logical end to trigger

the re-order, a portion of the IPDS job would be received but not print. Unless N-1 is required to

perform set processing, the Output Order should be changed to 1-N (Ascending) output order.

PDL Settings

Select the IPDS FAB. Use Resolution to determine the resolution of the output data sent to the print

engine. Only values of 300 and 600 dpi are supported. For print engines that do not have native

support for 300 dpi, the output will be simulated.

Halftone Selection

Note IPDS Halftone selection is only available for monochrome products supported by FreeFlow

Print Server IPDS.
