User interface enhancements

The DocuSP User Interface has been updated to allow users
quicker access to features and functions. In addition,
modifications have been made to allow more room on the user
interface for the enhanced feature set each DocuSP release
brings to the customer environment.
Some highlights include:
♦
The features are now split into Services and Managers.
Depending upon the product, Services and Managers may be
different:
♦
Reprint Manager is now the Print Service
♦
Managers are Job, Queue, Print, and possibly Color
♦
Administration activities are now located under the
Administration pull-down menu at the top of the UI.
♦
Accelerator icons have been added to each screen to allow
faster access to the basic feature set. Rolling the cursor over
each icon displays the feature the icon represents.
♦
Feature Access Buttons, or FABs, have been added. The
FABs provide access to additional functions within a tab, and
display a summary of the settings made within each FAB.
Clicking on a FAB displays functions applicable to that FAB
only, the end result of which is a GUI that is simpler to use.

Keyboard shortcuts

An extensive set of keyboard shortcuts has been enabled on the
DocuSP controller. These shortcuts are documented in the
DocuSP help.

First In/First Out and Resource Based Scheduling

A System Preference option has been added to allow a customer
to set the site level workflow to either First job In, First Out (FIFO)
or Resource Based Scheduling.
This preference combines the command line tool setFifoMode and
the preference to Fault Ineligible jobs.
♦
FIFO forces jobs to print in first in, first out order without regard
to available paper stocks or other necessary resources. Jobs
requiring unavailable resources fault and must be cleared
before printing can resume.
♦ Resource Based Scheduling places jobs with available
resources into the print stream. Jobs requiring resources not
available are set to ineligible awaiting resource availability.
