Main Printing Functions

This section describes the main printing functions which are available with the 6030/6050 Wide Format Printer and Copier/Printer.

Logical Printers (6030/6050 only)

A logical (virtual) printer is a group of saved print job settings for a particular data format, i.e., HP-GL, Versatec, TIFF, CALS, and PS/PDF. These saved settings, which are created using Print Services on Web, may include pen attributes, media type, print quantity, and the other parameters that define the print job that the logical printer will be required to perform. Logical printers are to printing as Stored Jobs are to copying, that is, both reduce setup time and increase efficiency by using previously saved settings. A maximum of one hundred logical printers can be set up within one 6030/6050 Wide Format Printer or Copier/ Printer for each supported data format.

Logical printer names are assigned based on the following. It is not possible to change these names.

P L T 0 0 H

Number

Format

1st to 3rd digits [PLT] or [plt] character strings 4th to 5th digits (number) Two-digit number from 00 to 99 6th digit (format) Any of the following.

H: HP-GL format V: Versatec format T: TIFF format C: CALS format A: PS/PDF format (optional)

The sixth digit can be omitted when Ethernet multi-data format functions are in use. When this digit is omitted, the relevant software to be started will be selected according to the extension log of the transmitted data file. If a logical printer is selected that has a different sixth digit than the format of the print file, the file may be forwarded to a logical printer that has the same extension as the transmitted file.

Refer to " Size/Media Mapping" in "4.3 Logical Printer Print Settings" for more details.

Media Mapping/Automatic Mapping

Media mapping is the process of setting up a table that establishes relationships between output image sizes and media sizes. This process, like size mapping, must be performed prior to printing. Once the media mapping table is finished, the media size is determined by the entries in the media mapping table. When Automatic Mapping is selected, the output media size that matches the output image size will be selected.

FreeFlow Accxes Web Print

Management Tool (6050A)

The Freeflow Accxes Web Print Managment Tool (Web Printer Management Tool) is a web-based utility that resides on the controller as a web server. It has the look and feel of a web page even though you are not on the World Wide Web. There are multiple versions of Web Printer Management Tool that are supported on FreeFlow Accxes controllers.

The address window uses the URL address, which is the IP Address of the controller you want to access. A customer's workstation, connected to a network, has access to any controller connected to the same network. It can be used to monitor jobs and/or administer the printer's parameters or configuration.

The performance of the Web Print Management Tool, in terms of user wait time, is determined primarily by:

• Network bandwidth and speed

• Amount of data being transmitted to or from the printer’s Controller

• Network traffic

The Web Printer Management Tool provides the following services to users of Xerox Wide Format Printers.

Chapter 2 Printer Overview

Users

• View printer status (including media inventory) and the print queue

• View the printer defaults

• View the Job Accounting mode for remote print jobs

• Generate test prints showing configuration data (such as the Controller’s TCP/

IP address)

System Administrators with the Password

• Change the priority of, or delete any job in, the print queue

• Set up all printer defaults

• Load stamps

• Specify the Job Accounting mode for remote print jobs

• Upload controller and printer firmware updates
