DisplayMaker Legacy X-12 - User Manual

1-16 Workflow Overview
Workflow Overview When the printer is connected to a ColorMark Pro print server,
here is how a typical print job progresses from the client work-
station to the printer. If you are using a non-ColorSpan RIP, refer
to the documentation that accompanies it for details.
1. The operator sends a file to be printed from a client
workstation.
2. The print job is received by the print server.
Once it reaches the print server, the print job may be reprior-
itized, combined with other jobs, re-routed, or otherwise
manipulated. Refer to the print server online help or manual
for instructions.
3. The print server RIPs the job.
The raster image processing (RIP) process translates the
PostScript language data that comprises the print job into
the data required by the printer.
4. The server sends the image to the printer for printing.
