DOCUSP 3.742-4 XEROX DOCUMENT SERVICES PLATFORM SERIESGETTING STARTEDPage Parallel RIP This feature applies to DocuColor iGen3 only at this time. Page Parallel RIP allows the DocuSP to decompose (RIP)multiple jobs or multiple segments of a single jobsimultaneously, resulting in a large boost in RIP speed. Thenumber of parallel RIPs available is dependent upon thenumber of CPUs and additional memory available in theDocuSP controller. This feature is supported for PostScript, PDF, VIPP, andASCII formats only, and the license must be enabled andactivated.NOTE: Jobs should be Adobe Document StructuringConvention, DSC, compliant and Page Independent. Jobs thatdo not meet these requirements fault with a “Parallel RIP failed”message and must be submitted to a non-parallel RIP queue. A typical site should have at least two queues: one queueset up for Page and Job Parallel workflows, and one queueset for serial processing of jobs that cannot be divided intochunks for parallel processing and for VIPP jobs that containembedded CACHE and PRECACHE commands. The following are some limitations on the Parallel RIPfeature: A queue set for Parallel RIP should also be set toProtected on the PostScript/PDF tab. The use of 1-N or N-1 is dependent upon the job suiteand user preference Jobs using the DocuSP Layout (Imposition) featurecannot be processed using a parallel RIP queue. The DocuSP Job Preview option uses the serialprocessing method. DocuSP Job and RIP status is available but may notaccurately reflect the status due to the multiple parallelRIPs. VIPP jobs using CACHE and PRECACHE must beprocessed using the serial queue; non-CACHE jobs maybe processed using either queue. Parallel RIP does not support jobs with subset finishingor page dependent setpagedevice commands. No mechanism is available to validate that a job is DSCcompliant and page independent. If you are unsure,submit a proof to a queue set to Parallel RIP to see if itprints properly. Very large standard PDF files, greater than 2 Gbytes forexample, print on a parallel RIP queue that is protected,
