Map Virtual Trays for Non-Fusing Stock

Non-fusing paper trays are input devices that feed paper without
allowing it to print. Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server IPDS is fully
compliant with the standard IPDS model for support of non-fusing
paper trays. When virtual trays are mapped to non-fusing physical
trays, Xerox FreeFlow® Print Server IPDS reports them to the
host as inserter bins, which ensures that the host will not send
print data to non-printing trays. Mapping to a non-fusing paper tray
is the same as for other paper trays.
NOTE: The mapping to non-fusing paper tray feature is available
only for systems that possess non-fusing trays, such as some
configurations of the following systems:
When non-fusing physical trays are present on the system, the
IPS Manager provides Tray Type columns in the Map IPDS Trays
to Stock and Select Stock for Printer Trays panels in the Tray
Mappings tab. The Tray Type column in the Map IPDS Trays to
Stock panel informs the user which virtual trays are reported to the
host as printable trays and which are reported as non-fusing trays.
For both virtual and physical tray displays, the entries in the Tray
Type columns are labeled either Fuser (printable) or Inserter (non-
fusing).
NOTE: The Tray Type columns only appear if at least one non-
fusing tray is available (installed and enabled in the printer).
Before sending an IPDS job, ensure that the appropriate fuser or
non-fuser stocks are assigned to the virtual trays and physical
trays required for the job, and verify that the attributes of the
media used for the job are appropriate. Once the mapping has
been accomplished, save the IPDS Job Profile. The mappings
can be applied for similar jobs, or future runs, by reloading the
profile.
KEY POINT: The Tray Type setting of Fuser or Inserter in the
Virtual Tray Mapping dialog is saved as part of the Job Profile, and
is restored when a Job Profile is recalled and applied. The Tray
Type setting of the physical trays is not saved in the profile
because it is determined by the acutal tray characteristics.

for a job involving non-fusing trays:
