  • Page 33: Preparing For A Print Job

    Preparing for a print job XEROX DOCUPRINT 180 LPS PDL REFERENCE Before a print job runs, the system administrator, programmer, operator, and LPS work together: • System administrator loads fonts, logos, and signatures to the printer from tape, floppy, or the host. Refer to the DocuPrint 180 LPS Operations Reference for detailed information.

  • Page 34: Input Processing

    When the input task processes all the data, or reaches page threshold (uses a certain portion of the area reserved for the PRFIL1.SYS file), it notifies the OCS task that the output task can begin. XEROX DOCUPRINT 180 LPS PDL REFERENCE...

  • Page 35: Output Processing

    Output processing Step 10. XEROX DOCUPRINT 180 LPS PDL REFERENCE The steps required during Output processing are summarized below. Step 1.

  • Page 37: Formatted Data

    Data from these sources come in a form that the Xerox DocuPrint 180 LPS can already understand; there is no need for the operator to create forms definition files or the like, as it is with the unformatted data described above.

    Syntax rules Example XEROX DOCUPRINT 180 LPS PDL REFERENCE PRINT DESCRIPTION LANGUAGE (PDL) When entering your JSL records on the system controller keyboard, make sure to follow these rules: • Use commas or blanks to separate the individual left- and right- part parameters of a command.

  • Page 44: Right-Part Constants

    In creating your JSLs, you assign names to the forms and files you want to specify. Each name you assign identifies the unique object you wish the system to act upon for your applications.
