Graphics considerations

There are several PDL parameters available for graphics handling.
These include four JDE OUTPUT command parameters and six
DJDEs.

Tables 9-1 and 9-2 summarize these parameters. The OUTPUT
command parameters are described in the “OUTPUT command”
section in the chapter "Print format commands." The graphics DJDE
parameters were discussed previously in the chapter "Specifying
dynamic job descriptor entries (DJDEs)."

Graphics DJDEs are record oriented because they take effect
immediately. For example, ALTER, CANCEL, and IMAGE may
appear anywhere on the page and are applied to the page on which
they occur. Positioning GRAPHIC, BATCH, and SAVE DJDEs is
discussed in table 9-2, “DJDE parameter definitions.” These also
take effect immediately.

Page-oriented DJDEs to be applied to the next page must not
precede batch mode or page interleaved graphics to be applied to
the current page.

Note that your Xerox DocuPrint 96/DocuPrint 96MX LPS can handle
single-color graphics from a Xerox 4850 or 4890 HighLight Color
LPS, but cannot process 2-color graphics.
