4635 LPS SOFTWARE COMPONENTS
• Continuous printing even when excessive character and IG
local density stress conditions occur (Interpress only). Refer
to the Xerox 4635 LPS Operations Reference for additional
information.
• Cluster printing (user-defined logical grouping of trays).
Refer to the Xerox 4635 LPS Operations Reference and to
the Xerox 4635 LPS Operator Guide for additional
information.
• Printing of over 16 images on a page with Interpress and
raster image processor (RIP). Refer to the Xerox 4635 LPS
Operations Reference for additional information.
• Variable paper sizes up to the physical capacity of the feeder
trays: 7 by 10 inches to 14.33 by 17 inches (178 by 254 mm
to 279 by 432 mm, including A3, A4, B4, and B5). 7 by 10
inch thruput is enabled when the optional Paper Feeding
Enhancement Kit is installed. Refer to the “4635 LPS
edgemarking” section of this chapter for additional
information.
• A two-way file transfer between the PC UI and the system
controller hard disk.
• Full text editing in a window environment which supports
scrolling and text editing using the mouse and keyboard, and
allows you to print and edit concurrently.
• Controlled finished sets of documents using segment
management software, and the optional bypass transport with
a finisher attached.
Optional host-resident software packages
This section describes a few of the many host-resident software
packages available for use with your 4635 LPS. For information
on a specific program, please contact your site representative.
Xerox Pen Plotter Interface (XPPI)/DCF
and GDDM Interface (XDGI) XPPI/XDGI is a host-resident software package (on IBM MVS or
VM/CMS) that translates computer-generated text and graphics
into high-quality images that can be printed on a Xerox LPS. A
host-independent version of XPPI/XDGI is also available for non-
IBM users. Refer to XPPI/XDGI documentation for more
information.
Host Forms Description Language
(HFDL) HFDL is a host-resident forms design software package (on IBM
MVS or VM) that allows forms to be created, changed, and
merged with data at the host for printing.
Xerox Printer Access Facility
(XPAF) XPAF enhances the capabilities and use of your LPS in an IBM
MVS/XA environment. For example, it allows you to change
printer destinations without restructuring the data stream. XPAF
accepts numerous types of data streams, transforms or
conditions them, and then sends them to the selected printer.
To users of IBM Advanced Function Printing (AFP), XPAF appears
to be an extension of the IBM product.
