Note
For jobs with Page Segment or Overlay resources containing a large number of images
which are only used once (non-repeating throughout the IPDS job), set the Image Caching Off.
Otherwise, performance degradation can occur associated with the caching of large numbers of
images which are not reused.
Note
Image caching must be enabled before using the RPO command.

Enable Transparent Highlight: This feature enables black text that is written first to show through
when covered with a light shaded pattern of highlight color. In the Job Profile Editor, use the
Enable Transparent Highlight check box to enable or disable the option. The IPDS Decomposer
reads the value on a job basis and configures the imaging software accordingly.
Tray Mappings Functions
On the print server, you must define the stock using the Printer dialog, assign each stock definition to a
specific physical printer tray, and load the stock in the trays.
The stock definitions are communicated to the IPS Manager for mapping to the IPDS trays through
the Tray Mappings tab. The IBM® host believes that it is dealing with a printer that has at least eight
input trays, or more, if more physical trays are present on the print engine. These input trays may be
considered virtual trays for IPS Manager. In the Tray Mappings tab you use stock names to map the
stock used for each actual physical tray to the stock name used for each virtual tray used by the host.
Note
Due to limited media attribute information, LCDS system stocks MAIN, AUX, and AUTO,
which are accessible from the Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server Printer dialog, will not appear in the
IPS Manager Tray Mapping dialog.
Note that stock names are used to simplify selection in the Tray Mappings dialog but that the print
server selects stock at print time based on the stock properties as well as the stock name. If you have
the print server configured to allow duplicate stock names, check the stock attributes when mapping
stocks to make sure the correct version is used by IPS Manager.
Refer to the Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server online help for more information on using the Tray Mappings
tab.
The contents of the virtual IPDS trays are reported to the host.
•
Map IPDS Trays to Stock: Designates which stocks belong in the virtual trays recognized by the
host. The Trays column indicates each physical tray that calls for the same stock name required by
the virtual tray. The Sides Imaged selection indicates which sides imaged selections are supported
by the virtual tray.
•
Select Stock for Printer Trays: Allows you to select a stock name for each of the physical trays
based on the named stocks in the print server stock library.
•
Saving and retrieving stock mappings using job setup files can reduce the time required to setup
for printing a job, especially for complex stock mappings. Follow the procedures in the IPDS online
help for saving and retrieving job settings.
Note
Due to the presence of the press interface, physical tray numbers do not correspond to
numbered feeders on the iGen3 itself.
•
View Stock Properties: Allows you to review the properties assigned to each stock.
