that tracks the progress and completion of each job submitted.
The [OK] button becomes enabled when the job is complete.
Jobs may be submitted simultaneously based on job size. There is
no hard limit to job submission. However, when submitting
hundreds of jobs, performance needs to be considered since it
may degrade.
The user always has the option of canceling the operation once in
progress. This does not disrupt any job currently being run but
prevents any further jobs from being submitted.
Parallel RIP processing
The operator can choose to enable or disable parallel RIP. If VI
Object Cache is enabled then Parallel RIP is automatically
disabled. Likewise if Parallel RIP is enabled then VI Object Cache
is disabled.
The Xerox Freeflow Print Server processes the workflow in the
following way:
1. Is the first job eligible for Parallel RIPing? If yes, the Xerox
Freeflow Print Server processes the job using all the available
Parallel RIPs and no additional jobs can be processed.
2. If no, the Xerox Freeflow Print Server routes the first job
through a single RIP.
3. The Xerox Freeflow Print Server determines whether the next
job is eligible for parallel RIPing.
4. If yes, the Xerox Freeflow Print Server processes the job using
all the remaining RIPs. No other job can be RIPed until one of
the jobs is completed.
5. If no, the Xerox Freeflow Print Server routes the job through
the next single RIP path. The Print Server continues through
the cycle.
ASCII and PCL printing utilities
ASCII printing within various environments results in output that is
not always formatted as desired. Unfortunately, there is no
“standard” method for printing ASCII files. ASCII is a character set
and not a Page Description Language. Therefore, ASCII files do
not contain format commands. Furthermore, there is no de facto
standard for ASCII formatting.
Nonetheless, users often have the requirement to match a specific
format. The utility below enables this formatting flexibility along
with a feature in Queue Manager that allows the administrator to
select the default document format.
