Introduction
The PRISMAsync controller converts print data, submitted via the LAN, to output on paper.
Although some print settings can be defined for print jobs (like number of copies or staples), print
data definition takes place outside the printer system.
The PRISMAsync based printer enables some basic operation on the jobs:
• Queue manipulation, such as moving jobs to the top of the queue or deleting jobs offer the
operator the opportunity to do some last minute 'micro-planning'.
• Job settings can be edited (e.g. number of copies) for last minute changes on jobs.
The PRISMAsync based printer supports printing on custom media sizes, i.e. media sizes that are
not part of the set of media types installed at production time, but that become defined in the
field.
The PRISMAsync based printer can stack, jog, punch, fold and bind loose sheets of all supported
media sizes. It can staple, stack and jog A4/Letter-like sheets and supports the imagePRESS
C7010VPS series finisher options. The printer enables the operator to configure the media defined
in each tray, such that print data can be printed correctly.
The PRISMAsync based printer uses a Media catalogue to match the media concept used in the
printer with the actual media types typically used by the customer. The operator can modify the
Media catalogue to contain the required media types. Print jobs can be self-contained, i.e. the
generated output is independent of the currently configured Media catalogue.
When an error occurs (such as a paper jam), the system assists the operator in resolving the
error. After an error is resolved, printing can continue. The printer takes care of job integrity, i.e. it
ensures that the final result generated by the printer matches the specification, regardless of
errors occurring during the printing process.
