Overview of Spire CXP6000 Color Server

The Spire CXP6000 color server basic workflow is as follows:

User activates Print in the DTP

application

(for example, Microsoft PowerPoint).

User selects one of the default Spire

color server virtual printers

(for example, ProcessPrint).

File begins processing according to settings

predefined in the file or for the selected

virtual printer.

File is spooled to the Spire color server.

After the job has completed processing, the

file is printed to the DocuColor printer, and

an RTP (Ready-to-Print) format of the job is

stored in the storage folder on the Spire

color server.
