INCORPORATING XEROX VALUE-ADDED FEATURES
DOCUPRINT IPS SOLUTIONS GUIDE 5-17
Media destination (output bin) selection
This feature allows you to select a specific output bin for an individual
job instead of waiting for the current bin to be filled before switching
to the next available output bin. You can specify a value from 1 to
65535 as the output bin number.
Note: Allow Host Control on the GUI to enable the media
destination selection:
• For PSF/MVS, specify the output bin number for the OUTBIN
keyword in your JCL OUTPUT statement.
• For PSF/VM, set the OUTBIN options keyword on your PSF
command line or PSF OPTIONS file to the correct bin number.
• For PSF/VSE, set the OUTBIN JCL keyword on your * $$ LST
statement to the correct bin number.
• For InfoPrint Manager/PSF for AIX (v2.1 and higher), set the
output bin number either for each printer in the printer profile or
for each job using a print submission parameter.
Feeding and finishing
The Document Feeding and Finishing Architecture (DFA) feature
enables the DocuPrint IPS printers to support specific options for
third-party feeding and finishing devices, including:
• the ability to map the Roll-Feed and downstream finishing
devices to AFP input trays and output bins selected from an
AFP medium map or host JCL.
• the ability to map Finishing Function 1 (FF1) and FF2 to a
Medium Modification ID in the Select Medium Modification
(SMM) command. When IPS finds a match between a
modification ID in the SMM command and the number mapped
to a finishing function, it will apply that finishing function to the
current sheet until the next SMM command is encountered. Two
vendors who supply finishing devices are Baldwin-Davlin and
Roll Systems; both use the FF1 signal to control document
stitching.
• support for end-of-set and end-of-job DFA signals.
• recovery from a set boundary following finishing device jams,
etc.
• the ability to define DFA set and job boundaries from an AFP
application as specified by the JOG OFFSET and MarkForm
commands (similar to current stitching support).
• setting global DFA processing parameters such as maximum
and minimum set size and segment ordering.
• the creation of named input and output DFA profiles, which
allow you to associate a set of DFA attributes or parameters
with specific DFA devices.
