IPDS PostScript
Configuration
Click the IPDS PostScript Driver Settings tab and enter the
configuration settings for the parameters as described below. When
you are finished, click OK at the bottom of the page to save your
settings to the print sever.
Loaded Font
Smoothing
A downloaded 240 dpi font may appear jagged when printed on a 300
dpi printer. The AXIS 5470e/570/670e uses a font smoothing feature
to enhance the appearance of these fonts. The font smoothing may be
disabled if you want to speed up the font loading or if your printer has
insufficient PostScript virtual memory.
Loaded font smoothing is Enabled by default.
Note:
PostScript Error
Handler
Use this parameter to download a PostScript Error Handler to the
printer at power on. Once downloaded, the Error Handler will print
an error message if a PostScript error occurs.
The Error Handler is Disabled by default.
Optimize Overlays Enabling this parameter will activate an overlay optimization feature
resulting in faster throughput when using host downloaded overlays.
Enabling this feature will require more free Postscript Virtual Memory
in the printer.
Virtual
Memory Kb
This value defines how much memory the AXIS 5470e/570/670e can
use in the PostScript printer for storing resources.
The default value is 2000 kbytes.
PostScript
bin 1-5
Map each PostScript bin (1-5) to a bin number or choose Default.
Enter the desired values in the Horizontal scale factor, Vertical scale
factor, Horizontal offset and Vertical offset fields.
Font smoothing is optimized for printers with 300 dpi resolution. If your printer has a
resolution of 600 dpi or higher, the smoothing effect will be less significant. In these
cases we recommend that you disable the font smoothing to avoid reduction in the
performance.
