Idr Command - Xerox 6100BD - Phaser Color Laser Printer Software Manual

Specifying print format parameters

IDR command

ac identifier
IDR overrides
4-20
Allows you to define default ink catalogs, palettes, and inks.
You must specify an ac identifier when defining an IDR. This
identifier is referenced by the OUTPUT IDR parameter or the
IDR DJDE. If a JSL contains an IDR command, but does not
specify an IDR name, the following message appears when the
JSL is compiled:
IDR FILE WILL BE USED DURING PRINTING.
The IDR command may be coded as part of the JSL or created
as separate files that may be referenced by JDLs or DJDEs. (A
separate file is created by the XJDC compiler when the
commands that define the IDR are coded outside the JSL. The
IDR command identifier is used as the filename.) An IDR that is
created as a separate disk file may be used as if it were part of
the JDL that references it.
If a DJDE will call the IDR, the IDR must be defined before the
JDL command, so that the IDR is saved on the system disk as a
separate file.
NOTE: The IDR command is a highlight color command that is
recognized by printers such as the Xerox 4850, 4890, and
DP92C LPS as well as the new DT 128/155/180 HLC Printing
Systems. It may be included in JSLs that are created on your
monochrome system for highlight color printing. If the system
encounters this command when printing, it is ignored.
The OUTPUT IDR parameter references an IDR command (with
appropriate parameters) for each job. These IDRs are used for
the job unless they are overridden by other commands or
command parameters. For example, the IDFAULT parameter of
the OUTPUT command can override an ink specified in an IDR
that has been referenced in a job.
The default ink is defined according to the following override
sequence:
1. The IDFAULT DJDE has highest priority.
2. The OUTPUT IDFAULT parameter has the next priority at the
job level.
3. A catalog level default overrides a system level default if it is
specified at the job level.
4. A system level default has next priority if it is not overridden
at the catalog or job levels.
