Job printing hints
The DC 6060 print engine cycles down on certain operations
such as on tray/bank switches or between jobs. Each cycle
may take 10-40 seconds to complete before the print engine
is ready to print again.
To avoid unnecessary print engine cycling, you can perform
the following steps:
•
Disable finishing, slip-sheets and offset stacking.
• Disable banner sheets when making multiple copies of a
job.
• Avoid media tray switches by constructing the job to use
only a single size, color, and weight of paper and by
ensuring before running a job that the currently active tray
has enough media loaded to print the entire job.
Skipped pitches
To stop the cycle of skipped pitches and cycle the print
engine down, perform one of the following to improve the
overall job performance:
1. Process the job in N-1 order rather than 1-N order. This
forces the job to be completely RIPed before the print
engine is started up. When the print engine starts it
consumes pages at 60 ppm until all pages are printed.
2. The user could pause the printer (the green button on the
DocuSP interface) until a large number of pages in the job
have been RIPed. If the user then resumes the printer at
the right time (some time before the whole job is RIPed),
the print engine prints all of the queued pages and the
controller simultaneously finishes RIPing the remainder of
the job. To do this successfully, the user needs to watch
and compute the rate that DocuSP is RIPing at. If you
know how many pages are in the job, then knowing that
the printer generates paper at 60 ppm, you can compute
how far from the end of the job to release the printer so
that RIP and print finish at the same time.
PCI channel interface PWB trace capture
Load the PCI Channel Interface PWB Trace command when
software is installed and the PCI Channel Interface PWB is
detected. This procedure is usually performed at the request
of Software Engineering or as part of a SPAR package.
