In Advanced Settings window, the resolution and the associated Halftone are displayed. Select
[Setup...] to choose the halftone, for instance, choose: 53, 85, or 106 line per inch screens. The actual
selection of halftones offered depends on the particular product and resolution. For each resolution
setting, select the halftone to associate from the pull-down menu. When the Resolution (dpi) is
selected, the associated halftone screen will automatically be used for all jobs until it is changed.
For print resolution values that are also supported by PostScript, IPDS uses the same default Halftone
selection used by PostScript. For instance, if PostScript uses a default halftone of 106 lpi for 600 dpi,
the IPDS tool will use the same halftone value for Resolution of 600.
Setting Up Media
If tray mapping is used on the IPS Manager to provide for stock switching on a per sheet basis, ensure
that the override locks for the stock attributes are NOT set for the queue.
Programming Stock Margins
Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server supports Stock Margin adjustments that are recognized by IPDS
interpreter software. Stock Margins are specified in relation to the print engine process direction. This is
the direction a sheet of paper moves through the print engine.
Stock Margins are programmed via the Stock Library using the Stock Comments field. Stock Margins
settings are retained in the system as long as the stock remains defined in the Stock Library. In cases
where Stock Margins are not required for a given stock, text may be used in the Stock Comments field,
but comments must not consist solely of numerical values.
Note
Stock Margins settings take affect only after clicking [Apply] or [Save & Apply] for the
current Job Profile in the IPS Manager. It can take up to 20 seconds for stock changes to be
recognized by the IPS Manager, so it is best to wait for 20 seconds after entering Stock Comments
with new margin values, before selecting [Apply] or [Save & Apply] in the IPS Manager.
When creating a new stock (or modifying an existing stock), enter the Stock Margins values in the
Stock Comments field using the following rules:
1.
In the Stock Library, open the Properties of the stock to be modified or select [New Stock] to
create a new stock.
2.
Select the Options FAB.
3.
Enter four integer values into the Stock Comments field. These integer values must be whole
numbers - no decimal points are allowed.
•
The Stock Margin integer values must be separated by a single space.
•
Stock Margin values may be either positive or negative.
•
Stock Margins are entered in units of 600 dots per inch. The actual size of the margin does
not depend on the job resolution.
