Printing with the Folding Finisher

You can fold printed paper by installing the optional folding finisher. Be sure to
observe the following precautions when using the optional folding finisher.
Important
❒ Make option settings for the machine using the printer driver when bidirec-
tional communication is disabled.
❒ Be sure to set the paper size and paper orientation in the printer driver when
using combined printing (layout).
3 ❒ If you are feeding paper from the bypass tray, you cannot use the folding fin-
isher function.

❖ Connecting to the optional folding finisher unit

You cannot use the optional folding finisher unit under the following condi-
tions or settings:
• The optional folding finisher unit is not attached to this machine.
• The bypass tray is selected for the feeding tray.
• The paper size and orientation is not properly set.
• [Film] and [Translucent Paper] is selected for the paper type.
• The Folding Finisher Tray is not selected as the paper output tray.
• The [Normal Print] is not selected as the printing method.
Note
❒ Depending on the application, print settings may not be enabled and printed
output may not be as expected.
❒ When setting Collate in the printer driver, make sure that the Collate check
box is cleared in the application's [Print] dialog box. If Collate is enabled in the
application, printing will not be as intended.
❒ When printing restarts after removing jammed paper, the printing position
may be different, depending on the location of the jam.
• If the paper jam occurred in the optional finisher, printing will restart from
the top page of the data currently being printed, or from the page where
the paper jam occurred.
• If the paper jam occurred in the machine, printing will restart from the
page where the paper jam occurred.
• Even if the paper jam occurred in the machine, the error will not be cleared
unless the cover of the finisher is opened and closed.

❒ If the optional folding finisher is connected but the fold settings are incorrect,
you might not be able to make settings for the optional device using the print-
er driver.
❒ Printing starts only after jobs from other functions (such as the copier) that are
using the folding finisher have finished.
❒ Depending on the application you are using, printer settings might not be ap-
plied and printing might not be as required.

98
 Collate

Collate
When printing multiple documents such as handouts for meetings, you can sep-
arate sets into order. This function is known as “Collate”. Collate stores data
transmitted from a computer to the printer memory or hard disk drive. The fol-
lowing are the three types of Collate:
Important
❒ If Auto Continue occurs on the first set, Collate will be canceled.
❒ If forced printing occurs on the first set, Collate will be canceled.
❒ When setting Collate in the printer driver settings, make sure that a collate 3
option is not selected in the application's print settings. If a collate option is
selected, printing will not be as intended.
Note
❒ Set Collate and Rotating collate when using the RPCS printer driver.
❒ Follow the procedure below when using a printer driver other than the RPCS:
• Set Collate and Rotating Collate in the printer driver.
• If you cannot make Shift Collate even with the optional finisher installed,
options may not be set up correctly in the printer driver. Correct the printer
driver's option settings.
• For details, see the printer driver Help.

Collate
Printed output is assembled as sets in sequential order.

Rotating Collate
Every other print set is rotated by 90 degrees.

AEU017S

3 Important
❒ The Rotating Collate function requires two paper trays containing same size
paper but in different orientations.
❒ If the output tray has shift function, Shift Collate will be applied even if Ro-
tating Collate is selected.

❖ When Rotate Collate is cancelled

If the following functions are selected, Collate or Shift Collate will be applied
even if Rotating Collate is selected:
• If jobs containing pages of various sizes are set.
• When output tray is specified.
• If custom size paper is set.
Note
❒ When Rotating Collate has been selected, printing speed will be slower than
with other collate functions.

HP-GL Specifications
The GL/2 and TIFF filter modules that are included in GL/2 and TIFF filter
products emulate the HP-GL commands of HP7550A. However, the command
syntax differs (as shown below) according to the settings of the GL/2 and TIFF
modules.

Line attribute commands

The HP-GL/2 filter does not support the following attributes for the line
attribute setting commands and will ignore them if they are included:
Attribute Specification
End of the line Makes the ends of lines rounded.
Triangle (Value = 3)
Line joint (Type = 2) Makes joints circular.
Triangle Joint (Value = 3)

HP-GL/2 filter coordinates

4 Like other HP plotters, the HP-GL/2 plots using single 0.025 mm units. When
plotting on paper however, the printer's or plotter's resolution determines the
plot units.
The following explanation covers the HP-GL/2 filter's start coordinates, plotting
origin, and scaling point.
P2

Hard Clip
Limit
+Y

P1

Base +X
Position
(0,0)
ATW011S

The HP-GL/2 filter uses the initial coordinates, plotting origin, and scaling point
to begin processing input data. Input data that has minus coordinates and orig-
inates from other than the bottom left area (P1) or the hard clip limit (the PS com-
mand-specified area) is shifted by the minimum value of each last drawn
coordinate to the plotting origin (where X and Y intersect, in the minus direc-
tion).
Likewise, the coordinates of images that are drawn in the plus direction are shift-
ed similarly. Images that exceed the hard clip limit are not output.
If the HP-GL/2 filter's clipping option is enabled (overriding the hard clip limit
of the PS command), the data is output with the hard clip limit reset to the im-
age's minimum and maximum value for each co-ordinate, and independent of
the original position and the hard clip limit.

HP-GL/2 Specifications
The GL/2 and TIFF filter modules that are included in GL/2 and TIFF filter
products emulate the HP-GL commands of the HP DesignJet 600 but differ ac-
cording to the settings of the GL/2 and TIFF modules. The following commands
are also different:

Character group commands

This section explains limitations to commands that belong to the character group
shown in the HP-GL/2 reference manual.

Character codes that can be used with LB commands

The HP-GL/2 filter supports three character codes for specifying LB command
parameters: ASCII (Roman 8), JIS, and Shift JIS. If other codes are included in
HP-GL data, unwanted characters might be output.

Font specification and selection

As with other HP-GL/2 products, procedures for font selection at HP-GL/2 fil-
ter are based on SD and AD command parameters.

125
 Printing GL/2 and TIFF Files

Parameters that can be used with SD and AD commands

The standard and substitute character sets (SD and AD commands respectively)
define each character set's attributes, such as font, font spacing, pitch height, and
character width. The table below shows which of the attributes shown in the HP-
GL/2 manual can be used with HP-GL/2.

TIFF Data Specifications

TIFF files that can be processed

This section explains the TIFF filter's file processing limitations. The TIFF filter
can process only TIFF files that are compliant with “TIFF Revision 6.0” (Adobe
Developers Association, June 1992).
Note
❒ The TIFF filter might be able to process non-compliant TIFF files, but the out-
4 put is likely to be incorrect, depending on the size of the image.

TIFF header
TIFF data requires the header values shown in the table below.
Field Values
Byte order 0x4d4d or 0x4949
Version number 42

TIFF directory
If the data is multi-page TIFF:
• Both the directory and data must be divided by page.
• The last four bytes of each directory must contain a pointer to the subsequent
page, and the pointer value must increase in keeping with the page order.
Note
❒ The pointer value for both single page TIFF data and the last page of multi-
page TIFF data must be “0x00000000”.
• The page order must be the same as the intended output order.

Tag values must be entered in byte, ASCII, short, long, or rational data format.
If the value of the tag is a pointer to data that is stored outside the tag entry, that
pointer must be at the back of the directory that contains the tag, pointing either
to the subsequent directory or the data domain preceding the end of the data,
not to the data domain of the subsequent page.

131
 Printing GL/2 and TIFF Files

Bitmap images
For reference, the top position of the strip data must be contained in the value of
the StripeOffsets (273) tag. The data size (byte) after it is coded must also be spec-
ified by the value of StripeByteCounts (279) tag.
The byte at the end of the last page's strip data must be the same as the byte at
the end of the TIFF data.
The bitmap data must be one of the following types:
Bitmap image type Limitations

 5. Saving and Printing Using
the Document Server
Accessing the Document Server
The Document Server enables you to store documents on the machine's hard
disk, allowing you to edit and print them as necessary.
Important
❒ Applications with their own drivers, such as PageMaker, do not support this
function.
Note
❒ When you use the Document Server, the following functions can be selected
using the machine's control panel:
• Copies
• Collate
• Paper selection: Paper source tray, paper type, paper output tray.
❒ The above items are dimmed, so you cannot set them from the printer prop-
erties dialog box when the Document Server is selected.
❒ You must enter a user ID, using up to eight alphanumeric characters.
❒ You should enter a Password and File Name to distinguish the job from oth-
ers.
❒ Up to 3,000 files can be stored in the Document Server. No new files can be
stored after 3,000 is reached. Even if less than 3,000 files are stored, new files
cannot be stored when
• a file to be stored contains more than 1,000 pages,
• the total number of pages contained in files stored exceeds 9,000,
• the hard disk is full.
❒ The Document Server also stores files scanned using the original table. You
should delete unnecessary stored files once in a while so as not to exceed the
capacity of the hard disk. For details about deleting stored files, see General
Settings Guide.
❒ When using the hard disk for functions other than those of Document Server,
you may not be able to store new files in the Document Server, even if there
are less than 3,000 files stored.
❒ For more information about Document Server functions, see General Settings
Guide.
❒ For information about how to access Document Server from a client, see the
printer driver Help.
