Edgemarking
Edgemarking is the placement of marks along the edge of the page.
These marks consist of graphic elements that bleed off the paper,
tabs for section reference, or marks that denote changes made in
redline drafts. Refer to your
Xerox DocuPrint 180 LPS Operations
Reference
for detailed information on edgemarking.
Non-imaged elements
Elements of a page, that is, text and graphics, may begin at the edge
of the physical page and may even extend off the page. However, if
any part of a printed element begins off the system page, then no part
of the element is imaged.
If a line of variable data begins off the system page, no part of
the line is printed.
If a ruled line begins off the system page, no part of the ruled
line is printed.
A ruled line near the edge of the system page must be
positioned at least one half the line’s thickness inside the
system page to be printed. If positioned less than one half of
the line’s thickness, you will get an error message but the
system will print the job. Refer to your
Xerox DocuPrint 180
LPS Operations Reference
for additional information.
One common cause of print elements accidentally beginning off the
system page is the improper use of the OUTPUT command SHIFT
parameter. This command is used to shift the entire page’s contents
relative to the boundaries of the system page. When a negative shift
value is entered (as is often the case for the back side of duplex
pages), and that value exceeds the left margin, no text elements
print. When using a negative value for the SHIFT parameter, be sure
that it is less than the value of the left margin.
