Printing with mixed media

Mixed media overview

The IC-309m print controller enables you to print complex
documents that contain paper of varying size, coating, weight, and
so forth.

There are different types of mixed media jobs. A mixed media job
can include commands embedded in the file, such as dynamic
page exeptions, or you can manually program the media print
parameters for a range of pages in a job.

Page exceptions are special pages within a job for which you
assign different media print parameters. For example, you can
assign different media for each chapter in a book. Inserts are
blank pages of a selected media that are inserted in a job in a
specified location. For example, you can add blank pages between
sections within a brochure.

Dynamic page exceptions are page exceptions or inserts that are
embedded in the file. These files use

setpagedevice

keys to

indicate that the printer must switch media during the printing of a
job. When a job is RIPed, the IC-309m print controller identifies
the keys or commands and maps them to the selected types of
paper. The printer then uses those types of paper for the job. The
IC-309m print controller supports dynamic page exceptions for the
following file formats:

PostScript

VPS

PPML

The method that you choose to print these documents depends on
the type of document that you want to print.
