Creating jobs to use subset finishing

Subset offset (Page Level Jog)

5-2
It is important that jobs intended to be printed using subset
finishing be enabled with the following:
• PostScript code (using the setpagedevice operator)
• Variable Data Intelligent PostScript PrintWare (VIPP)
version 2.0 or later.
NOTE: The Xerox Production Print Services (XPPS) client
software does not support subset finishing at this time.
Subset finishing can also be performed at the DigiPath
workstation through the Document Scan and Make Ready
application.
The printer has the ability to offset on a page level. This
support allows VIPP to be utilized for offset type applications.
This ability permits jobs to be sent as one larger file with page
level offset commands.
The term Jog is used to initiate offset behavior.
• setpagedevice jog 0 (The offset command is OFF).
• setpagedevice jog 3 (The offset command is ON).
A job with a multiple copy count with a jog 3 should force
offsets between each distinct set. A job with a copy count of 1
can contain jog 0 or jog 3 on a page by page basis. The
system will alternate offsets between each alternating jog 3
and jog 0 command.
The following information should be considered when using
the Jog command:
• The first jog command on a page will be honored and all
others will be ignored.
• Multiple cases of jog 3 without the corresponding job 0s
will be ignored.
• The Printer Managers setting of offset ON or OFF should
not impact the action of the PDL level jog commands. For
example, if the Printer Managers offset is set to OFF and
a job has a jog 3, then the sets should be offset from one
another.
• The DT/DP 75/90 allows subset offsets to the top tray.
However, the 61xx is not mechanically capable of jogging
to the top tray.
