Time required to RIP PDL

These components are influenced by the efficiency of the PDL to
be RIPped, the complexity of the pages being RIPped, the
number and resolution of images included, and the media/color
space transforms being performed on the data before imaging/
printing.

Time required to print PDL

These components are influenced by the media being used and
the paper path through the IOT. Whether the printing is face up
or down, simplex or duplex, all one size or a mix of sizes to be
drawn from different trays all make a difference. In addition, the
complexity of the pages and therefore the number of Image
Quality Adjustments that the DC 2045/2060/6060 print engine
makes during a job also impact the final performance of the
printer as it generates paper.

Number of Images

The number and resolution of the images that are embedded
within a job will be a big driver of the PDL size and therefore PDL
generation time, data transfer, spool and RIP performance.
Minimizing the number and/or resolution of embedded images
will improve performance.

Ethernet

To keep the network from becoming over loaded with jobs when
several clients are simultaneously submitting and printing, it is
important to have a fairly fast ether net (100 Bast T or faster).

Gateways

If a user has all of the DocuSP gateways installed and active,
performance will be less than expected because the work
required to monitor each added gateway and potential client
connection will consume a small portion of the available CPU
band width. If this is a problem, you may wish to remove
gateways not being used (i.e. lpr, IPP, SNMP, HTTP Novell,
Appletalk or Token Ring), keeping only those that are needed.
