SETTING THE SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
4-8 XEROX DOCUPRINT 4850/4890 IPS GUIDE TO CONFIGURING AND MANAGING THE SYSTEM
For jobs that contain such high frequency of plex changes, it is
recommended that the Maximum Simplex value be set to 0.
This allows the print engine to perform simulated simplex
without charging for the blank pages.
Note: Ideally, this value should be set to the number of dead cycles
required to clear the printer’s paper path.

Specifying the extraction color for highlight color printing
When the DocuPrint 4850/4890 IPS receives a color job, it prints it in
whatever color of ink is loaded in the printer, using solid color and a
variety of shades (color plus black) and tints (color plus white).
Extraction color specifies how the existing color of text, shading, or
graphics contained in a job will print on your DocuPrint 4850/4890
IPS printer, and which color will print in the solid highlight ink color.
All colors other than the highlight (printer ink) color print in a shade or
tint of the color loaded in the printer.
The IPDS data stream allows eight colors to be specified in a job:
1. Red
2. Green
3. Blue
4. Cyan
5. Magenta
6. Yellow
7. Brown
8. Black.
However, the DocuPrint 4850/4890 IPS printer has available a
different set of ten highlight color inks plus black that can be selected
for loading in the printer: red, green, blue, cyan, magenta, royal
(blue), ruby, cardinal (red), violet, and brown. Therefore, a job may
specify a color for which the DocuPrint 4850/4890 IPS does not have
a corresponding ink; or you may wish to print the job in an ink
different from what is specified.
Note: Solid black is not affected by the extraction color selection; if
specified in the job, it always prints as solid black.
Note: The system requires extra processing to apply shading to
data, when the data uses a color other than the one set as the
extraction color. Therefore, jobs that use a large amount of these
colors may cause performance degradation. For example, a job that
uses a large amount of green will print faster when the extraction
color is set to Green (or “Printer Color” with green ink is loaded in the
printer), than when the extraction color is set to Red.
