Production Printing
In FreeFlow 6.0, a new common printer interface enables all
FreeFlow applications, such as FreeFlow Makeready, FreeFlow
Process Manager, FreeFlow Output Manager, FreeFlow Print
Manager - Advanced Print Path, and FreeFlow Web Services in
the print shop to maintain a single database of configured
printers and to have a common job setup GUI interface across
FreeFlow applications.
The common printer interface includes the following utilities:
•
Printer Registration Locator Tool
— allows you to set
whether the registered printer list used by a FreeFlow
application is located on a local computer or a remote
computer.
•
Printer Registration
— allows you to register supported
production printers and queues for use by FreeFlow software
applications. As well as, creates a list of registered printers
available to FreeFlow applications.
•
Printer Status/Job Status Tool
— allows you to status jobs,
queues, and printers.
Depending on the FreeFlow application accessed to submit a
document for Production Print, the Job Setup interface may
include any of the following options:
•
Target Destination
— allows you to select a registered
printer and queue for a print job (available for FreeFlow
Makeready and FreeFlow Print Manager).
•
Job Ticket Select & Save
— allows you to select a job ticket
or save the current job ticket to a local directory, a repository,
or with the document as an associated job ticket.
•
Job Setup
— allows you to specify the Job Ticket settings for
the printing and finishing options supported by Xerox
production printers.
•
Preferences
— allows you to specify a default Job Ticket,
custom paper size units, image shift units, job note settings,
and printer stock library preferences.
