SPECIFYING DYNAMIC JOB DESCRIPTOR ENTRIES (DJDES)

8-56

XEROX DOCUPRINT 96/DOCUPRINT 96MX LPS PDL REFERENCE

SPLIT

This parameter specifies the use of segment management. When
segment management is in effect, an end of segment condition
occurs whenever max sheets (including separators) are generated or
an end-of-copy or end-of-report condition occurs.

Syntax

SPLIT =

option(s)

Options

Table 8-53 lists the parameter option(s) and definition(s).

Considerations

When SPLIT=OFF is specified, the segment number (

nnn of part nnn

on separator sheets) is reset from its current value and begins at 001
again when segment management is turned on again.

Table 8-53.

SPLIT parameter option(s) and definition(s)

Option(s)

Definition(s)

NOW

Specifies that the current or upcoming end-of-page
(backside if duplex) will mark the last data page of the
segment.

(

min, max)

Specifies the minimum and maximum numbers of
sheets allowed in a segment. The minimum number
of sheets allowed is 2 and the maximum is 65,535.

If a segment end has not occurred by the time max
sheets are generated, then the printer declares end-
of-segment. If end-of-segment occurs before min
sheets are generated, then the printer generates
padding of either blank or multiple LAST sheets (if
the LAST option of the SEPARATORS parameter
has been specified). If specified with segment
management already in effect, then the current
segment is tested against the new max and if greater,
an end-of-segment is immediately declared.

OFF

Specifies that printer segment management not be
provided, and if currently in effect, be immediately
terminated.
