The time required to process a job can depend on various
influences. The time required to process a job is made up of 4
components:
• Time for a client workstation to generate the Page
Description Language (PDL, i.e. PostScript, HP-PCL, TIFF,
etc.).
• Time to transfer the job PDL across the net and be marked as
received by the DocuSP.
• Time required to RIP the PDL to produce the bit maps that
the print engine can use.
• Time required to write the RIPped bit maps to the print engine
and generate paper.

Time used to generate the PDL

These components is strongly influenced by the speed of the
client workstation, the print driver being used by the application,
and the complexity of the pages to be printed.

Time used to transfer PDL

These components is influenced by the speed of the network
connection between the client workstation and the DocuSP. It is
also impacted by the number of workstations on the network, by
the configuration of the net (i.e. number and speed of the
gateways and routers and by the number of simultaneous
network connections that DocuSP has to manage). Finally it is
impacted by the complexity of the pages being printed (i.e. the
size of the PDL files being transferred).
