l
Job: The internal name of the template and data file that were used to create this job.
l
Statistics: The statistics group shows all information with regards to how long the job
took, the speed at which it ran, the job size and what was used to achieve those numbers.
l
Start time: The moment the print command was given. Typically this occurs just
before the progress dialog appears.
l
Finish time: The moment all output files had been either written to disk or spooled
to the printer. This is not the printer's finishing time.
l
Duration: The total time that it took to finish the job (the difference between Finish
and Start time). This should be the sum of the time spent on Content Creation, Job
Creation and Output Creation.
l
Content Creation: The time spent on creating content items. This includes the time
needed to process the input data and merge them with the given template.
l
Job Creation: The time spent on assembling the job. Job creation settings can be
made in the Advanced Printer Wizard, or in a separate Job Creation Preset (see
"Job Creation Presets" on page471).
l
Output Creation: The time spent on creating the actual (spool) file(s). Output
creation settings can be made in the Advanced Printer Wizard, or in a separate
Output Creation Preset (see "Output Creation Settings" on page482).
l
Input size: The number of records in the input data.
l
Document count: The number of documents in the job. This may be less than the
input size if filtering was used in the Job Creation settings.
l
Job size: The number of pages created during Output Creation. This number is also
used to calculate the output speed in pages per minute.
l
Merge engines: The number of Merge engines used for Content Creation. On a
multi-core system it is recommended to run several Merge engines in parallel; see
"Engine configuration" on page23.
l
Cores: The number of cores in the CPU(s) of the system.
l
Licensed speed: The maximum speed (in pages per minute) allowed under the
applicable license.
l
Speed: The actual speed achieved (in pages per minute) in this print job. The
speed is calculated by dividing Job size by Duration.
