Each third-party device is identified by a specific personality
profile. The personality profile contains information about the
options available with the finishing device (for example, a
booklet-making device that can produce both side-stitched and
saddle-stitched booklets). It also specifies timing requirements,
constraints, flags, and other parameters.
You can create several personality profiles that correspond to
different configurations of the finishing device. Refer to your
Guide to Configuring and Managing the System for information
on creating personality profiles.
To connect a third-party finishing device to the NPS/IPS bypass
transport, you align the finishing device with the paper exit slot of
the bypass transport, dock the finishing device, and establish an
electrical interface between the two.
Connecting the bypass transport to third-party finishing devices
involves the following:
