PRINT OPTIONS OVERVIEW 7

PRINT OPTIONS OVERVIEW

This chapter describes printer drivers and printer description (PPD/PDD) files, Integrated Fiery Color Server print options, and locations for setting print options.

About printer drivers and printer description files

The Integrated Fiery Color Server receives files from computers on the network, processes (RIPs) the files, and then sends them to the digital press. Windows and Mac OS computers communicate with the Integrated Fiery Color Server by means of a printer driver and PPD (PostScript Printer Description) files. Windows computers can also communicate with the Integrated Fiery Color Server by means of a Printer Control Language (PCL) printer driver and PDD files (PCL’s equivalent of PPD files). Both drivers enable you to use special features of the Integrated Fiery Color Server from the Print dialog box.
A printer driver manages printing communication between your application and the printer. It interprets the instructions generated by the application, merges those instructions with printer-specific options you set, and then translates all information into Adobe PostScript or PCL, languages the printer understands. In other words, the printer driver writes a PostScript or PCL file based on your original file and the options you set from the Print dialog box.
A printer driver also allows you to select print options for your digital press. To do this, the printer driver must be matched with a PPD/PDD file for your Integrated Fiery Color Server. A PPD/PDD file contains information about the features and capabilities of a particular device (for example, what paper sizes and media types are supported). The printer driver reads the information in the PPD/PDD file and presents the information to you in the form of options you select in the Print dialog box. The PPD/PDD file for the Integrated Fiery Color Server includes information about the features of both the digital press and the Integrated Fiery Color Server. For information about the specific print options for the Integrated Fiery Color Server, see the table that begins on page 10.

About Print options

Print options give you access to the special features of your digital press and Integrated Fiery Color Server. Print options can be specified in several places—in Integrated Fiery Color Server Setup, or from the printing application, ColorWise Pro Tools, Hot Folders, or Command WorkStation.
PRINT OPTIONS OVERVIEW 8

Setting print options

• During Setup
Some settings are specified during Setup by the administrator. For information about the current default server settings, contact the administrator or the operator.
• From applications
With the printer drivers, you can specify job settings when you print a job. For information about specifying job settings from Windows applications, see Printing from
Windows. For information about specifying job settings from Mac OS applications, see Printing from Mac OS.
• From ColorWise Pro Tools
You can set the default CMYK Simulation Profile, CMYK Simulation Method, RGB Source Profile, RGB Separation, Output Profile, Rendering Style, Spot Color Matching, Black Text/Graphics, and Black Overprint settings from ColorWise Pro Tools. For more information about using ColorWise Pro Tools, see Color Printing.
• From Hot Folders
Assign a group of print options to a Hot Folder. When you specify print options for a Hot Folder, the print options are assigned to all jobs sent through that Hot Folder. These print options override any default options.
For more information, see Hot Folders Help.
• Overrides from Command WorkStation
To change job settings from Command WorkStation, double-click a job to display the Properties dialog box.
For more information about using Command WorkStation, see Command WorkStation Help.

Print option override hierarchy

The override hierarchy is as follows:
• A user’s printer driver settings override the Integrated Fiery Color Server Setup and ColorWise Pro Tools settings.
• Settings made to Hot Folders override the user’s printer driver settings.
• Settings made from Command WorkStation Job Properties override the user’s printer driver settings.

PRINT OPTIONS

Print options and settings

PRINT OPTIONS 9
This chapter explains each print option, default setting, location of the print option in the printer driver, and any constraints or requirements. It also provides additional detail about specific print options, beginning on page 31.
In the following table, underlined settings in the Option and settings column indicate default printer driver settings (PPD/PDD defaults). If you do not use the printer driver interface to configure a particular option, the Integrated Fiery Color Server prints the job with the underlined default setting.
The Printer driver location column lists where to find the print option in the Integrated Fiery Color Server printer driver.
For options that you configure in Command WorkStation, Configure WebTool, or ColorWise Pro Tools, choosing Printer’s default results in the Integrated Fiery Color Server printing the job with the setting you specified in Setup. For options that cannot be configured in Setup, the Integrated Fiery Color Server prints the job with a preconfigured Printer’s default setting. For more information, see the Requirements, constraints, and information column in the table.
To determine the current Setup defaults, print the Configuration page from Command WorkStation. For information about printing a Configuration page, see Configuration and
Setup.

Additional information

The following sections provide additional information about print options. For more information about the settings, requirements, and constraints in effect for these options, see the table that begins on page 9.

Auto Trapping

Trapping is a technique to print some objects slightly larger or smaller than specified in an application, in order to prevent white edges around the objects. These white edges, or “halos,” can be caused by factors such as misregistration, the physical properties of the toners, and the stiffness of the media. The Auto Trapping feature provides you with advanced trapping settings and gives you full control over their values. For more information, see

Booklet Maker

Booklet Maker is the imposition tool that allows you to quickly print documents in booklet format, without the need for more involved page imposition programs. Booklet Maker provides advanced settings, while streamlining the booklet-making process by displaying only the options and controls relevant to your selections. Booklet Maker is capable of imposing jobs from nearly any application.

Booklet Maker can be accessed in the printer driver when you print a job or in Command WorkStation Job Properties, where you can modify a job’s properties.
NOTE: Booklet Maker options are not available for PCL printing.
PRINT OPTIONS 32
The following booklet layouts are available:
Saddle binding: In Saddle binding, signatures are folded together as a group, and then stapled
or stitched along the center fold, which forms the spine of the booklet.
Perfect binding: In Perfect binding, the signatures are folded individually, and then stacked
together along the common edge, which is flattened and glued to form the spine of the booklet.
Nested Saddle: The Nested Saddle binding method combines saddle and perfect binding
methods by stacking two or more saddles (also called “groups” or “subsets”) together along the common fold, then glued together at the fold to form the spine of the booklet.
For Booklet Maker options and available settings, see to the table on page 25.

Document size and Paper size

Document size is the page size defined in your application’s Print setup (or Page setup) dialog box. Paper size is the size of the actual sheet of paper on which your job will print. It may be useful to think of document size as digital input (the page size defined in your original document) and Paper size as the physical output (the actual size of the paper in the digital press tray).
In cases when printing one document page per sheet of paper, Document size is usually the same as the Paper size. However, Document size may differ from Paper size when printing booklets or imposing multiple document pages on a single sheet.
The illustrations below show examples of possible relationships between Document size and Paper size. Note that the orientation of all pages shown is Landscape.

PRINT OPTIONS 41

Scale

The Scale option allows you to increase or decrease the scale (in the range of 25–400%) of your print job. The operator can specify a scaling override, but the override is applied to any scaling value already set in the active job. For example, if a user sends a print job with a scaling value of 50% and the operator specifies a scale override of 300%, the job is printed at 150% of the original document size, that is, 50% of 300%.

Scale to Fit

This option allows you to scale a job to a paper size different from the image size. When you set this option to On, the image is increased or reduced in size to fit a paper size you select from the Page Size option. When this option is set to Off, the original document size is printed without any scaling, even if you print to a larger paper size.
