Each time a job requires a different paper size that changes
across a pitch boundary, the system performs a time-consuming
xerographic quality adjustment. When the printing speed of an
LCDS job appears to degrade due to the use of mixed stock sizes,
you may be able to improve the speed by using the LCDS
OUTPUT command TMODE parameter in the JSL to run the print
job in a lower pitch mode. Refer to the OUTPUT TMODE
parameter in Using LCDS Print Description Language for
information on using this LCDS command.
Similarly, if the system cycles down frequently because your
external finishing equipment has a slower throughput rate than the
printing system, you can use the TMODE parameter of the LCDS
OUTPUT command to lower the pitch mode to match the speed of
the finishing equipment. This can improve overall throughput by
avoiding time-consuming cycle downs.
NOTE: "Pages per minute" actually means "impressions per
minute," referring to one side of a printed sheet.
Paper size and pitch mode minimum and maximum
The illustrations in this section show the pitch modes in which you
can operate with the smallest and largest size papers supported
by the printing system.
Printing in 8 pitch mode provides the highest throughput speed
available —up to 154 ppm for the DP135 printer and up to 206
ppm for the DP180 printer. (The DP100 printer does not support 8-
pitch mode.) However, you should keep the following in mind
when you select the paper you want to use for this mode:
•
Paper sizes smaller than 8 inches / 203 mm in width are
supported only when the optional 7 inch Paper Kit is installed
on the printer.
•
The leading edge of any paper used in the printer cannot be
less than 10 inches / 254 mm long.
The following figure illustrates the maximum and minimum paper
sizes supported in 8 pitch mode.
