Restart System
Use the Restart System command to reboot and restart the Printer
Controller. A confirmation is required before this command will
execute. The monitor will display the prompt, “Do you really want to
restart the system? (Y/N).” Jobs remain in the queue and are
processed when the system is fully booted.
Caution: Restarting the system completely shuts down and
reboots the Printer Controller.
Access Administrator or operator
Syntax Restart System
Arguments None
Dual mode switching
The dual mode printing option lets you switch back and forth between
IPS and NPS modes on your Printer Controller. This allows your
system to accept IPDS data (IPS mode), as well as PostScript and
PCL data streams (NPS mode).
When the system is in IPS mode, it can spool PostScript and PCL
data streams in the background; however, it can print these jobs only
when you switch to NPS mode. When the system is in NPS mode, it
cannot spool IPDS data streams in the background; it can print them
only in IPS mode.
NPS mode to IPS mode
Follow these steps to switch from NPS mode to IPS mode:
1. While the printer is idle, key in List documents at the PS>
prompt and verify that no print jobs are pending or being
received.
2. Place the cursor on the background area of the screen (not in a
window or on an icon) and click the right mouse button.
3. From the workspace pulldown menu that appears, select Start
IPS Printing. A confirmation prompt window appears.
Caution: Do not select Restart and do not turn the controller
or the printer off and on.
4. Click on Confirm on the confirmation prompt message window.
If printing from the channel, when the screen is blank, turn the
HCU off, wait a few seconds, then turn it back on.
The Printer Controller reboots and after a few minutes, switches
to IPS mode and is online.
