Workflow Overview
Here is how a typical print job progresses from the client work-
station to the printer.
Print Server
1. An artist sends a file to be printed from a client workstation.
2. The print job is received by the print server.
Once it reaches the print server, the print job may be reprior-
itized, combined with other jobs, re-routed, or otherwise
manipulated. Refer to the print server online help or manual
for instructions.
3. The print server RIPs the job.
The raster image processing (RIP) process translates the
PostScript language data that comprises the print job into
the data required by the printer.
4. The server sends the image to the printer for printing.
ColorMark Software RIP
1. An artist sends a file to to be printed to the ColorMark
Software RIP.
2. The software RIPs the job.
The raster image processing (RIP) process translates the
PostScript language data that comprises the print job into
the data required by the printer.
3. The ColorMark Software RIP sends the image to the printer
for printing.
