A. Using the Printer Driver

This method allows a static selection of pages that will be sent to specific paper trays.

Please refer to the IS900c Printer Driver guide for detailed information on using the printer driver.

You can select a different tray for each page of the print job. Use commas to separate individual page numbers (e.g., 1, 2, 3), and hyphens to indicate page ranges (e.g., 1-10). For the specified pages, images are processed according to the tray's paper type. Settings

By adding a checkmark, you can select a different tray for each page.





22832

B. Manually select trays for a print job held in the IS900c RIP Hold queue: This queue is for storing jobs. The jobs sent to this queue from the computer are stored in the print controller. To process jobs stored in the Hold queue, give commands such as printing a job, using the RISO Console. Storing original data that are frequently used or shared documents in the Hold queue enables to print them without opening the application and giving the command to print for every job from the RISO Console screen.

Step #1 Send your print job to the hold queue.

Step #2 Go to the IS900c console and Select the Job and then select Edit. (Refer to the IS900c Utility Guide page 24)

Step #3 Select the Trays tab.

Step #4 Select Tray selection per page and enter the appropriate page numbers in the tray pages fields and then click apply.

Use commas to separate individual page numbers (e.g., 1, 2, 3), and hyphens to indicate page ranges (e.g., 1-10). For the specified pages, images are processed according to the tray's paper type. (Refer to the IS900c Utility Guide page 28)





22832

Step #5 Print the job.

C. Configure a new queue to support tray calls for repeated static jobs

Step #1 Create a normal type print queue. (Refer to the IS900c Utility Guide page 80)

You can select a different tray for each page. Use commas to separate individual page numbers (e.g., 1, 2, 3), and hyphens to indicate page ranges (e.g., 1-10). For the specified pages, images are processed according to the tray's paper type. Settings

By adding a checkmark, you can select a different tray for each page.

Step #2 Modify the tray settings of the new queue by checking Tray selection per page and checking Queue priority. Enter the appropriate page numbers in each tray. Then click Apply.

Any print job sent to this queue will use these predefined tray calls of the queue.

The example below shows a queue configured so that pages 1,3,5,7,9 go to the standard tray and pages 2,4,6,8,10 go to tray 1. Any additional pages in the job would go to an automatically selected tray because that is what is set for the “input tray” of this queue. You may also specify that the input tray is the standard tray or tray 1, 2, or 3.





22832

D. Sending Postscript with dynamic tray calls to a configured queue

This fourth option is for use with postscript files that have tray selections entered at the page level of the PS code.

Step #1 Create a new print queue.

Step #2 Edit the queue.

Step #3 Select the Trays tab.

Step #4 Place a check mark next to Tray selection per page and then click apply.

Do not enter page numbers in the tray pages fields of this queue.





22832

The IS900c PPD contains the following four tray call options: (Standard), (Tray-1), (Tray-2), (Tray-3) *OpenUI *InputSlot/Input tray: PickOne *OrderDependency: 200.0 DocumentSetup *InputSlot *DefaultInputSlot: Unknown *InputSlot Standard/Standard tray: " mark { (Standard) /InputSlot /SHOptions /ProcSet findresource /setSHOptions get exec } stopped pop cleartomark" *End *InputSlot Tray-1/Tray 1: " mark { (Tray-1) /InputSlot /SHOptions /ProcSet findresource /setSHOptions get exec } stopped pop cleartomark" *End *InputSlot Tray-2/Tray 2: " mark { (Tray-2) /InputSlot /SHOptions /ProcSet findresource /setSHOptions get exec } stopped pop cleartomark" *End *InputSlot Tray-3/Tray 3: " mark { (Tray-3) /InputSlot /SHOptions /ProcSet findresource /setSHOptions get exec } stopped pop cleartomark" *End *CloseUI: *InputSlot

Below is an example of the syntax to use in your postscript file when the desired result is that page 1 of the document will be printed on paper to be pulled from Tray 2.

%%Page: 1 1 %%PageBoundingBox: 0 0 612 792 %%EndPageComments %%BeginPageSetup mark { (Tray-2) /InputSlot /SHOptions /ProcSet findresource /setSHOptions get exec } stopped pop cleartomark %%EndPageSetup

File Transfer Protocole (FTP) user and password: FTP is supported by IS900C and the FTP port can be enabled or disabled by the administrator through the RISO console. For further details on how to apply ftp settings, please consult the following document:

The FTP protocol is supported for accessing the IS900c print queues. Command line file transfer to aqueue and GUI based drag n drop file transfers are supported.

The IS900c can be configured to restrict FTP access or limit access to specific users.

The User management tab allows you to set FTP access. See page 55 of the IS900c Utility Guide. Thescreenshot shows both Allow FTP and Allow Anonymous FTP. Only one can be checked.Enabling/Disabling FTP Access

1. Select a user name from the registered users list.2. Enable/Disable FTP access. When enabling FTP access, place a checkmark in the [Allow FTP].3. Click the [Apply] button.

Allow anonymous FTPWhen a checkmark is placed in the [Allow anonymous FTP], FTP access by anonymous user is enabled.
