System information

perfect binding A group of individually folded signatures that are stacked along a common
fold for binding. The spine is flattened and glued together.
portrait In a portrait document, the width is less than (<) the height.
post-inserter tray A tray that allows input of any blank or pre-printed matter that bypasses the
copier/printer fuser.
Preview view Preview view mode approximates the appearance of the final printed output.
It is sometimes called WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get).
printable area Space assigned to page content (text and/or images).
printer's marks Designate the location of folds, cuts, margins, gutters, and bleeds. Printer's
marks appear on the printed sheet outside the main content area of the job.
printer's spread Shows pages in the order and layout in which they are printed as an imposed
job.
printing For a Fiery Server, printing refers to transferring the raster image from the
Fiery Server to the copier/printer at high speed, freeing up RAM for the next
job. While the print job's file is usually saved to disk, raster images are held
in RAM during and after each print job. However, both users and operators
can request that the raster image is saved to disk along with the original
print job's file. Saving the raster image to disk offers some advantages -
raster files are already processed so they print quickly, and each part of the
raster file is still identified with a page in the original document, which
means that individual pages of a saved raster file can be accessed.
processed/held Processing a job, or RIPping a job, involves creating a raster file (raster
image) after spooling, in preparation for printing. A processed/held job is
kept in the Hold queue until sent to the copier/printer.
reader's spread Shows pages in the order and layout in which they are intended to be read.
right edge Specifies binding across the right edge of the booklet. The booklet reads
from right to left.
RIPping RIP stands for Raster Image Processing. RIPing refers to sending the job
through the first part of the print process. Print option preferences specified
for the job are interpreted, and a raster image file created. In this raster file
(raster image), color data is associated with each dot that can be rendered on
the copier/printer. The color data tells the copier/printer whether or not to
apply cyan, magenta, yellow, or black toner to each position on the page.
saddle binding A group of folded sheets stitched or stapled on a common, centered fold
line. Saddle-stitched binding is the most basic type of binding and is the
most common for booklets.
Scale to Fit Scales page(s) to best fill the sheet without printing past its edge. Scale to Fit
is the default mode.
sheet Paper on which a printing job is imaged on a printing press.
signature A press sheet that is folded to form the pages of a booklet in sequential
order. Each signature in a booklet is folded in the same way.
simplex Printing on only one side of the sheet.
Size menu The Size menu includes items representing all page sizes defined by the
currently selected copier/printer PostScript printer description (PPD) file.
spine Where the signatures are joined at the center fold and then stitched or
bound.
