Offsetting
Output
The 200 Sheet Face-up Output Bin and the 10-bin Mailbox/
Collator do not support offsetting.
The 500 Sheet Face-down Bin supports offsetting output
between successive jobs or multiple collated sets of a
single job. Offsetting is controlled from the Control Panel
(see page 3-42) or via CentreWare DP.
The following conditions must be met before offsetting
occurs between jobs:
• The offset function occurs only between successive
jobs that are both destined for the Face-down Bin.
For example, a print job may contain a banner sheet in
PCL that precedes a PostScript print job. If they are
both directed to the Face-down Bin, the banner sheet
is offset from the PostScript job. If the banner sheet is
directed to the Face-up Bin (no offset capability) and
the PostScript job is directed to the Face-down Bin,
offset does not occur between the banner sheet and
the PostScript job. If, however, the next job is directed
to the Face-down Bin, offset will occur between the
PostScript job and the next job.
• The offset function occurs between successive jobs
directed to the Face-down Bin only if the jobs contain
data that results in a sheet being printed and delivered
to the bin.
For example, if a PCL job contains <ESCAPE>E
sequences at the beginning of a job and there is no
printable data separating these commands, the offset
does not occur (even though these escape sequences
are valid job boundaries).
