Measuring performance
You can use the DocuPrint sequencer log file to calculate print
speeds. Although a stopwatch is the recommended method for
obtaining sustained throughput print speeds, the sequencer log can
be used to calculate speeds which include the start-up latency
associated with the printer. This section describes how to calculate
speeds using the sequencer log and how to minimize the start-up
latency in your calculations.
Note:
The sustained throughput using a stopwatch is a better
measurement of the speed of the job since the several seconds of
start-up time do not need to be measured.
Refer to the following example when reading “Calculating
throughput.” The Show Log command in this example displays a
menu of logs with the current sequencer log named DocuPrint
