Reusable elements can be used repeatedly in different pages,
booklets and jobs. On the IC-301 print controller, all reusable
elements are processed once and cached as elements for
further use. They can then be reused either within the sub-job
itself, or in additional runs of sub-jobs.

Inline Elements
Unique information is drawn from a database and is embedded
in the sub-job. This data prints only once for individual
booklets.
PPML
The PPML format is a new XML-based industry standard that print-
technology manufacturers developed for the high-speed
production of reusable page content.
The IC-301 print controller supports PPML formats. Some of the
features that are included enable you to:
•
Process PPML jobs efficiently
• Import jobs in various VI formats to the IC-301 print controller
PPML has a hierarchical structure. Document components are
separated from their submission file and can be organized and
stored in different levels of the hierarchical structure.
PostScript Files
PostScript files are suitable for simple, very short run jobs. All page
elements are re-RIPed for each page. These jobs do not use a VI
authoring tool at all. Instead, they use a mailmerge function in a
Microsoft Word document or a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet.
