NetWare Direct Notes ..................................................................... 30

The Splash DC Series Server makes it easy for clients on a TCP/IP or Novell NetWare network to print to the Xerox or Fuji Xerox copier. No AppleTalk bridge software is needed.

For IPX printing from Novell NetWare, Splash creates a native Novell IPX connection from the Splash Server to the Novell server. NetWare Direct delivers print jobs from a print queue on the Novell NetWare server to the Splash Server for processing. Once NetWare Direct is set up and activated, it operates automatically on the Splash Server each time a Novell client prints to the designated queue on the Novell server. Splash NetWare Direct is simple to set up and supports all Novell Ethernet frame types.

When TCP/IP Direct is enabled at the Splash Server, the server becomes a network printer. Splash accepts LPR/LPD print jobs and jobs from TCP/IP print queues set up on Windows NT or Novell NetWare servers. In addition, clients on a TCP/IP network can send TIFF, EPS, PDF, and text based PostScript les to the Splash Server for printing.

Setting Up Network Printing to Splash Page 9

Page 10

All software needed for both TCP/IP and IPX printing is automatically installed when you install the Splash Server software (pre-installed on Splash DC Servers). The Enterprise Networking software includes one control panel and four system extension les, which are automatically installed in the Mac OS System Folder during Splash installation.

Setting Up TCP/IP Direct Printing to Splash This section describes how to set up the Splash Server to receive print jobs from clients on a TCP/IP network. To do this you need to connect the Splash Server to the TCP/IP network using the appropriate network cable, and set up the TCP/IP control panel. You can then enable TCP/IP print services in the Splash Server application preferences.

Note: TCP/IP, IPX, and AppleTalk networking can all run simultaneously on the same cable, or on different cables. For example, you can run AppleTalk networking on Ethernet and IPX networking on TokenRing at the same time.

Conguring the TCP/IP Control Panel

Use the TCP/IP control panel to set up an Internet address for the Splash Server. You will need to assign the Splash Server a static Internet address so clients can reliably locate the Splash Server on the network. (A static IP address is required if you set up the server to use the Splash Web Queue Manager option.)

Before you begin, you need to have all address information available. Obtain a static Internet address (and subnet mask number if needed) and name server address from your network administrator.

Splash DC Series v4.0 Reference

To set up an Internet address for the Splash Server:

1. At the Splash Server, point to Control Panels in the Apple menu, then select TCP/IP in the submenu.

The TCP/IP control panel appears.

2. Choose the network connection type for the Splash Servers TCP/IP network in the Connect via menu.

3. Select Manually in the Congure menu.

4. Enter the IP Address for the Splash Server.

5. Enter a Subnet mask number if needed. A subnet mask provides additional address information for some networks.

6. Enter the Router address if needed. A network router maintains a list of IP addresses for two or more groups of network devices. The router then uses the list of addresses to direct network data to the appropriate location on the network. To enter two or more router addresses, press the Return key after you enter each address.

7. Enter a Name server address for the DNS server on your network (for example, design.corp.com).

8. When you have nished entering network information, close the TCP/IP control panel. A dialog box asks you to conrm the new setup. Click OK. You are ready to enable TCP/IP printing for the Splash Server.

Setting Up Network Printing to Splash Page 11

Page 12

Enabling TCP/IP Printing at the Splash Server

After you set up the TCP/IP control panel, you can enable TCP/IP direct printing in the Splash Server application. To do this:

1. Start the Splash Server application.

2. Choose Enterprise Networking from the Server menu. The TCP/IP Direct window appears.

Note: The NetWare Direct window appears also when you choose Enterprise Networking. For information about how to use the NetWare Direct window to set up Splash for IPX printing, see page 24.

3. Click Enable.

4. Click on the Splash Server window to bring the Splash Server application to the foreground.

5. Choose Preferences from the Server menu. The Splash Server Preferences appear.

Splash DC Series v4.0 Reference

6. Click Network at the top of the window to see Splash Network preferences.

7. Select the Enterprise Networking checkbox, then click OK.

Splash is ready to receive network print jobs from TCP/IP clients.

Setting TCP/IP Direct Options

You can select the following options in the TCP/IP Direct window.

Note: These options are unavailable when TCP/IP is enabled. To change an option, rst click Disable.

Parse For Document Owner Name When selected, the Document Owner name is extracted from each print job as it is received at the Splash Server. When this option is not selected, Enterprise Networking determines the user name from the network connection.

Append UNIX Hostname to User Name When selected, the network host name is added to the print jobs owner name that appears in the print queue and job log at the Splash Server. For example, when the user Diane prints from the UNIX host Santana the print jobs owner name is Diane@Santana. When this option is not selected, the print jobs owner name is Diane. For most situations, do not select this option.

Note: This option is useful for UNIX environments where all users share the same username, such as root.

Setting Up Network Printing to Splash Page 13

Page 14

Restricting TCP/IP Printing to Specic Machines

The Splash Server can be set up to accept TCP/IP print jobs from only the machines you specify in the Hosts.LPD le. This le is located in the Extras folder within the Splash Folder on the Splash Server. You can edit the Hosts.LPD le with any text editor (such as SimpleText) to enable TCP/IP printing from only specic host names, IP addresses, or ranges of IP addresses. This allows print access control at the individual, group, and subnet levels. Specic examples of how to set up host names are provided in the Hosts.LPD le on the Splash Server.

Setting Up a Novell Server Print Queue

This section describes how to set up a print queue on a Novell NetWare server for printing to Splash using TCP/IP. The PCONSOLE Quick Setup option creates a print queue object, a printer object, and a print server if one does not exist. To set up a Novell NetWare print queue:

1. From a workstation, log in to the server as a user with sufcient privileges to create a print queue (Admin or Supervisor).

2. From the client workstation, run PCONSOLE.EXE in SYS:PUBLIC (D:\PUBLIC).

Note: The root directory name or drive may be different for your computer.

3. Select Quick Setup. PCONSOLE prompts you for information about the print queue.

4. Enter a Print Server name if prompted for one.

5. Enter Print Queue and Printer names.

6. Specify the print Queue volume.

7. Choose the banner type (No banner is the recommended setting).

8. Be sure to set the Printer Type eld to UNIX printer. This causes the host name and printer name elds to appear.

9. Enter the Host Name for the Splash Server (the name server address specied in the TCP/IP control panel at the Splash Server) or the static IP address for the server.

10. Enter the Printer Name SplashLPD when prompted.

11. Press Enter to complete setup. PCONSOLE prompts you to save the new print queue settings. Choose Yes.

NetWare Direct Notes

If the Novell File Server Does Not Appear During NetWare Direct Setup

If, during NetWare Direct setup, a list of Novell le servers does not appear when you click the Browse button under Print Queue Info, you may need to specify the Novell servers Ethernet frame type in the Mac IPX control panel. To do this:

1. On the Splash Server computer, open the Apple menu, point to the Control Panels submenu, then choose the Mac IPX control panel. The Mac IPX control panel appears.

2. Double-click the Ethernet icon under IPX Interface. The Ethernet Access Conguration dialog box appears.

3. Deselect Always Auto-Congure Frame Type.

Splash DC Series v4.0 Reference

4. Select the option that matches the Novell le server Ethernet frame type.

5. Click OK.

Novell Network Number and Node Number Locations

If you need to nd the Novell network or node numbers for the Splash Server, they appear in the Mac IPX control panel on the Splash Server computer.

AppleTalk Network Protocol Changes

If the network protocol for the Splash Server is changed from Ethernet to Modem Port or Printer Port (LocalTalk), this does not interfere with the ability of Splash NetWare Direct to print jobs to Splash from Novell NetWare print queues. Novell Server print jobs resume downloading to the Splash Server after the Server is restarted.

Print Queue Connections

Enterprise Networking is congured to support up to three Novell NetWare print queue connections and ten TCP/IP connections to Splash. You must install additional memory on the Splash Server computer to support additional IPX and TCP/IP print queues (about 100K per additional print queue).

Setting up NetWare Directory Service Enterprise Networking provides native support for NetWare 4.1 and IntranetWare NetWare Directory Services (NDS). This section describes how to create print queues on NDS and how to set up the Splash Server for receiving print jobs from NDS print queues.

Novell 4.x and IntranetWare servers include NetWare Directory Service (NDS) support. NDS is a naming scheme and database that allows a company to put all of its servers and services into one large, hierarchical database.

With NDS and the Splash software you can create a single print server object and assign virtual printers to that print server. Virtual printers can have one or more print queues associated with them. To change the printers or queues, change the Print Server assignment in the NDS database. Splash Enterprise Networking reads the NDS database for the print server information and services the specied queues. This allows you to control print queues associated with the Splash Server without making adjustments at the Splash Server.

Splash ColorCal Notes ...................................................................... 57

This section describes how to calibrate the DocuColor Pro printer/copier with Splash ColorCal. Your Splash DC Series v4.0 Server includes a color scanner that you connect to the server Power Macintosh to run ColorCal. For correct calibration results, be sure to use only the scanner provided with Splash to perform calibration with ColorCal.

Why Calibrate with Splash ColorCal? A basic characteristic of all color copiers is that the output color drifts over time, producing inconsistent color from day to day, or even hour to hour. This shift in color can be caused by changes in humidity, temperature, and the number of copies made. Splash ColorCal corrects this to ensure that output is consistent over time.

Splash ColorCal, unlike other calibration solutions, is an ideal tool for both business graphics and other less-technical users, as well as for the more traditional prepress users. Splash ColorCal requires no special color knowledge and does not require the use or purchase of an expensive densitometer. Splash ColorCal is more accurate than other calibration solutions because it automatically adjusts gray balance in addition to accurate linearization. Further, it uses three times more color

Calibrating with Splash ColorCal Page 35

Page 36

patches, with over six times the resolution in critical regions to provide results more accurate than competitive solutions. Splash ColorCal includes an option that randomizes placement of the patches on the page to minimize the effects of print density variations on a page. Splash ColorCal allows calibration on heavy stock papers.

Splash ColorCal provides color calibration for your DocuColor Pro printer/copier. ColorCal guides you step-by-step through a simple process to quickly calibrate your printer/copier for consistent, accurate color.

Once calibration is complete, you can use Splash CMYK and RGB color correction (selected in the Splash print driver), or use advanced features of ColorCal to create and save custom color proles. You can perform multiple calibrations, and save the individual proles for use with specic printing conditions and print media. Cali- bration takes only a few minutes to complete, so you can test your printers color output and recalibrate as often as needed.

The ColorCal application is located in the Splash Calibration Folder within the Splash Utilities Folder on the Splash Server. The Splash Calibration Folder can be moved anywhere on the Splash Server hard disk. A folder containing the ColorCal proles is located in the Preferences Folder within the System Folder. (SeeManag- ing the Proles Folders on page 58 for notes about moving Splash color proles to other folders.)

Calibrating the Printer/Copier This section describes how to calibrate your printer/copier with Splash ColorCal. The scanner provided with your Splash DC Series Server must be connected to the Splash Server before you can calibrate. Follow the instructions provided with the scanner to connect it to the Splash Server computer and set it up for scanning.

Note: Make sure the printer/copier is powered on during the entire Splash ColorCal calibration process.

Note: If you leave the scanner powered on between calibrations, be sure to turn it off and then back on before calibrating.

Splash DC Series v4.0 Reference

For best color printing results, recalibrate the printer/copier at least once daily. If printer/copier use is heavy, you may want to recalibrate as frequently as several times a day. ColorCal runs only on the Splash Server computer. The printer/copier must have 8.5"x11", A4, or larger paper loaded to print the Calibration Target used in this process.

Note: ColorCal calibration does not affect the quality of photocopies. Only les printed with Splash are affected. (Always calibrate the printer after a service call.)

To calibrate with Splash ColorCal:

1. Double-click the ColorCal icon in the ColorCal folder on the Server. (The Splash Server application can be running during calibration.)

Splash ColorCal appears.

2. If you are using ColorCal for the rst time, or if the printer/copier has recently been serviced, choose Calibrate Scanner from the ColorCal menu.

This command causes ColorCal to adjust the printer/copier to compensate for scanning differences that could affect calibration quality. (This command affects ColorCal operation only. It does not affect the scanning capability of the printer/copier for other scanning operations.)

If you have calibrated at least once before, go to Step 8.

Calibrating with Splash ColorCal Page 37

Page 38

3. Choose Printing Options from the Splash menu. A dialog box appears.

4. Be sure the Randomize Patches option is selected.

This option averages out print density variations across the calibration target page, and ensures high-quality calibration. For best results, be sure this option is selected before you calibrate with ColorCal.

5. Select Calibrate Photographic or Calibrate Text/Line Art to indicate the types of jobs that will be printed and for which the copier should be calibrated. If you select both, you will perform calibration for Text/Line Art mode and then perform calibration a second time for Photographic Mode.

Note: If only one Original Type is selected, calibration information for the other is removed when calibration is performed. Jobs at the server will be printed in whichever mode was last selected in ColorCal.

6. Select Calibrate All Sets if you want to calibrate all calibration prole sets. Or choose the prole set to calibrate from the Select Active Set menu. For infor- mation about creating Calibration Sets, see Creating Calibration Sets on page 43.

7. Click OK.

8. Be sure that the copier platen cover is closed, then click Run Calibration.

Splash DC Series v4.0 Reference

9. Select a paper source for the ColorCal calibration target.

The paper size can be 8.5"x11", A4, or larger. If you select Manual Feed you can select Heavy Weight paper.

If you select Manual Feed, choose a paper size from the menu that appears.

Note: For Manual Feed, you must orient the paper in the bypass tray so the short-edge feeds into the copier rst (SEF orientation).

ColorCal prints a calibration target on the printer/copier. The target always shows uncalibrated printer performanceeven if you have calibrated the printer before.

ColorCal prompts you to examine the target for printing defects.

If printing defects (such as creased paper or uneven or aking toner) appear on the target, click Reprint to produce a new target on the printer/copier.

Calibrating with Splash ColorCal Page 39

Page 40

10. When you have printed an acceptable Calibration target, click Continue. ColorCal prompts you to place the target on the scanner surface for scanning.

11. Place the Kodak Gray Scale target (provided with Splash ColorCal) and the printed target face-down on the scanner glass. Allow a 0.25" to 0.5" margin between the targets and the edge of the scanner surface.

Orient the target with the short edge of the paper along the left side of the scan- ner surface. The Gray Scale target must cover the grayscale patches in the upper-left corner of the ColorCal target. (Place the Gray Scale target face- down on the glass rst, then place the ColorCal target face-down on top of the Gray Scale target.)

IMPORTANT: Handle the Gray Scale target by the edges to avoid smudging the patches. Keep the target in its protective sleeve when it is not being used. Replace the target if the patches become damaged. Contact Xerox Customer Support to order a replacement Gray Scale target.

Note: Be sure to use the Gray Scale target for this step to produce the most accurate scanning results. If the Gray Scale target is not present during calibration, ColorCal uses default information to set grayscale densities.

12. Click Scan.

ColorCal scans the Target and determines current color performance based on the acquired image. A progress bar appears while the target is being scanned.

Splash DC Series v4.0 Reference

When this process has concluded, ColorCal displays a graphic representation of color performance for the printer.

The Desired Density lines represent accurate CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, and black) printing for the current CMYK color prole selected in the Verify Against pop-up menu in the Set Active Proles dialog box (see page 46). The Measured Density lines show actual uncalibrated printer performance as measured from the scanned Target.

(Technical note: The vertical axis for each color curve is in units of Status-T less the paper density. The horizontal axis is represented as dot percentage from 0% to 100%.)

13. Click Update Proles to have ColorCal adjust color output to match the Desired Density levels for your color proles.

ColorCal updates all proles at the same time, even custom ones which have been created, so you can use any color prole without repeating color calibration.

Calibrating with Splash ColorCal Page 41

Page 42

When prole updating is complete, a message appears.

14. Click Verify to check calibration results for the printer (see Verifying Printer Color Accuracy on page 45), or click Done to return to the ColorCal main window.

Color calibration is complete. After you run calibration, you can select any of the standard color proles included with ColorCal for consistent, accurate color (see Using ColorCal Proles with Splash on page 47). If printer use is heavy, use Splash ColorCal throughout the day to keep track of color printing performance and recalibrate as needed (see Verifying Printer Color Accuracy on page 45).

To exit ColorCal, choose Quit from the File menu.

Inverting the Calibration Image

Splash ColorCal provides a special feature for calibrating to heat transfer paper used for adhering color output to non-standard media such as rice paper, rag paper, or T-shirts. To ensure consistent color output, use the original artwork for the Calibration Target, and activate the Mirror Image option before calibrating (see page 38). This inverts the scanned artwork target to match the nal transferred piece.

Splash DC Series v4.0 Reference

Creating Calibration Sets

You can perform multiple calibrations and save each one with a unique name. You can then select one of the calibration sets to use with a particular tray. The same cal- ibration can be used for multiple trays. Each calibration set contains all of the Splash Proles.

To create a calibration set:

1. Choose Edit Sets from the ColorCal menu.

2. Click Add.

3. Enter a name for the calibration set.

4. When you calibrate the printer/copier, choose the name of the calibration set to calibrate from the ColorCal Options dialog box. Follow the instructions described in Calibrating the Printer/Copier on page 36.

Note: If both Photographic and Text/Line Art Original Types are selected in the ColorCal Printing Options, you must perform calibration for both modestwo cal- ibrations per set. If only one is selected, ColorCal removes the calibration informa- tion for the other when the calibration is performed. Jobs at the server will print in whichever mode was last selected in ColorCal.

Calibrating with Splash ColorCal Page 43

Page 44

To specify calibration from different sets to paper trays:

1. Choose Color Prole Sets from the Splash Servers Server menu.

2. For each tray, choose the calibration set to use.

3. When you are done, click OK.

Splash DC Series v4.0 Reference

Verifying Printer Color Accuracy To verify the accuracy of the calibration process, or to determine the amount of drift since the last calibration, click Verify Accuracy in the ColorCal main window (or click Verify in the dialog box that appears when calibration is complete). Follow the same steps used to initially calibrate the printer (see Calibrating the Printer/ Copier on page 36).

When the verication process has concluded, ColorCal displays the color performance results. Compare the Desired Density lines with Measured Density lines to determine color printing accuracy. The example below shows that measured output closely matches desired color performance. Recalibration is not needed.

If the Measured Density levels do not match Desired Density levels, calibrate the printer again (see page 36).

Calibrating with Splash ColorCal Page 45

Page 46

Setting the Verify Against Prole

If desired, you can change the calibrated prole Splash ColorCal uses to create the Desired Density lines during verication. For example, you might want to set the verication prole to CMYK SWOP if you use this prole frequently for printing.

1. In the Splash ColorCal application, choose Set Active Proles from the Splash menu. The Standard and Custom CMYK proles appear.

2. Choose a prole in the Verify Against pop-up menu.

You can choose any calibrated CMYK prole, custom prole, or Pass Through (standard output) prole for verication.

3. Click OK.

To verify the accuracy of standard color output for your DocuColor Pro printer/copier, choose the MajestiK Standard or Regal Standard prole in the Verify Against pop-up menu. This causes Splash ColorCal to verify measured densities against a benchmark MajestiK or Regal printer at Xerox laboratories.

For most purposes the Pass Through prole should be set to Visual Standard (the default setting). This selection produces the most visually smooth output.

Splash DC Series v4.0 Reference

Uncalib. DIC is an uncalibrated xed prole certied by DIC of Japan to provide the closest possible match to Japanese DIC press inks. This prole does not update when you calibrate with ColorCal. (Note: Uncalibrated proles are not recommended for printing jobs with RGB color to Splash.)

Splash DC Series v4.0 Reference

Pass Through Proles

Includes a Visual Standard prole for RGB printing, proles that return the MajestiK, Regal, or Acolor printer/copier to standard color output, and an option for uncalibrated printing. When you use a color management system (from Kodak, Agfa, Apple, EFI, and others) for printing, make the appropriate Standard prole (MajestiK or Regal) the active Pass Through prole in the Active Proles dialog box, and disable Splash color correction in the Splash Color Options dialog box at the Client workstation.

Visual Standard provides the widest gamut and smoothest color transitions when you print RGB colors. This is the default setting for the Pass Through option, and is the best selection for RGB printing to Splash. (Note: For best results when you print jobs that contain RGB data only, be sure to turn Splash CMYK color correction off in the Splash Color Options dialog box.)

MajestiK Standard recongures a MajestiK or Acolor 630/635 to match the color printing output of a benchmark MajestiK printer in the Xerox laboratories in Webster, NY. This setting, used in combination with Splash color correction disabled, should be used when MajestiK is selected with the PANTONE ColorDrive software or the included PANTONE Toolkit and MajestiK parameters are used to produce the most accurate PANTONE colors with the MajestiK, Regal, or Acolor 630/635/930/935 printer/copiers.

This setting can also be used with the Regal or Acolor 930/935 to more closely match the output characteristics of the MajestiK or Acolor 630/635. This can be useful when printing les originally designed to be printed on a MajestiK or Acolor 630/635 with Splash color correction disabled. This can be useful also when using other commercially available color management systems that provide MajestiK or Acolor 630/635 prole settings. Splash color correction should be disabled when printing using other color management systems. When a Regal or Acolor 930/935 is used with the MajestiK Standard setting, a loss of detail in the shadows may occur with some images.

Regal Standard recongures a Regal or Acolor 930/935 printer/copier to match the color printing output of a benchmark Regal printer in the Xerox laboratories in Webster, NY. This setting, used in combination with Splash color correction disabled, should be used when Regal is selected with the PANTONE ColorDrive software with the MajestiK, Regal, or Acolor 630/635/ 930/935 printer/copiers.

This setting can also be used with the MajestiK or Acolor 630/635 to more closely match the output characteristics of the Regal or Acolor 930/935. This can be useful when printing les originally designed to be printed on a Regal

or Acolor 930/935 with Splash color correction disabled. This can also be use- ful when using other commercially available color management systems that provide MajestiK or Acolor 930/935 prole settings. Splash color correction should be disabled when printing using other color management systems.

Uncalibrated sets the printer for uncalibrated color printing. This setting causes the printer/copier to produce raw, uncalibrated output that reects the current state of the printer/copier.

Creating a Custom Color Prole Splash ColorCal provides expert-level tools for creating custom CMYK user- dened proles or modifying the calibrated CMYK proles provided with ColorCal. You can edit only the calibrated CMYK proles. To create a new prole, save an existing prole under a new name then modify the new prole. To use the prole editor:

1. Click Be an Expert in the Splash ColorCal window. The Splash ColorCal edit window appears.

2. Select a color prole to edit from the pop-up menu on the right.

Note: You cannot edit the factory-installed proles. If you select one of these proles, ColorCal forces you to save the new prole with a new name.

3. Select a color curve to edit from the pop-up menu in the upper-left corner.

4. To edit, drag the curve points with the mouse pointer. Output Percentage (0% to 100%) and Input Percentage (0% to 100%) update instantly on the right as you drag a curve point.

To add a curve point, click anywhere along the curve. ColorCal allows a maximum of 32 control points for an individual color curve.

To remove a curve point, drag it over another point on the color curve.

To undo all changes to the curve, click Revert.

Note: The color curves you create with the Expert edit controls are similar to those used in Adobe Photoshop, but cannot be directly exchanged with curves created in Adobe Photoshop.

5. When you have nished editing all color curves (C, M, Y, and K) for the pro- le, click Save.

6. Enter a prole name if you want to save your changes as a new prole.

7. Click Save.

8. If you are nished editing proles, click Done.

Note: If you edit a v1.0-style prole, the color curve editor plots density (from 0.0 to 2.0) against input percentage (0% to 100%).

Calibrating with Splash ColorCal Page 55

Page 56

(Technical note: The vertical axis is in units of Status-T less the paper density. The Horizontal axis is represented as dot percentage from 0% to 100%.)

If you saved your changes as a new prole, the new prole name appears in the list of color proles when you choose Set Active Prole in the Splash menu. Note that the new prole is automatically calibrated to the last time calibration was run as it is created.

Expert-Level Editing with ColorCal

This section describes a procedure you can use to tailor color output to your environment with the ColorCal Expert-level tools.

1. If desired, use a reliable densitometer that can read Status-T density to measure the 20 patches on the grayscale target.

2. Edit the le Test Strip Adjust (In) located in the Color Data folder in the ColorCal folder. Enter new visual density values based on your measurements, and save the edited le.

The visual density values are the rst numbers in each line that begins: Kodak. The density is rounded to the nearest .001 units and is approximately 0.05 for the rst patch to 1.95 for the last patch, in increments of 0.10 units. Actual measured values are typically less for the densest patches.

3. Start the ColorCal application, and select the CMYK prole you plan to modify in the Active Proles dialog box (see page 49).

4. Calibrate the printer with ColorCal as described on page 36.

5. When calibration is complete, quit the ColorCal application and print any CMYK color le to compare with a lm proof or printed material that you want to match.

Before you print, be sure to choose the correct CMYK prole in the Color Options dialog box (see page 47).

6. Start the ColorCal application, and click Be an Expert to open the color curve editor.

7. Edit the color curves as described on page 54.

8. If you saved the edited prole with a new name, select the new prole in the ColorCal Active Proles dialog box.

9. Quit the ColorCal application and print the CMYK le again.

Splash DC Series v4.0 Reference

Repeat Steps 6 to 9 until you are satised with the color output.

You can also use the grayscale patches on a ColorCal Verication target as a reference for adjusting curves. To do this, print a verication target in the ColorCal application (see page 45). The rst row of gray patches near the right side of the page is composed of CMY colors mixed together. The second row of gray patches consists of equivalent black (K) patches. These two rows should look similar for good gray balance when you use a SWOP Coated prole. To change the data values used to create these patches, edit the Gray Patches (In) le.

To simulate different paper stocks, change the paper white by moving up the Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow curves at 0%. A typical lm proof may appear slightly yellow, so moving up 0% Yellow to 0.02 density will add yellow everywhere that can be printed on the page. There will still be a white border where there is no toner on the printed page. Trim this border from your proofs to prevent the appearance that yellow is too strong.

Splash ColorCal Notes

Troubleshooting Scanner Problems

If you are unable to successfully scan the ColorCal target and complete calibration, the scanner could be malfunctioning. Refer to the manual provided with the scanner for troubleshooting information.

If you leave the scanner powered on between calibrations, be sure to turn it off and then back on before calibrating.

Failure to Accurately Calibrate

If, during the verify process immediately after calibrating, the measured curve does not closely correspond to the target curve, it may be that your printer/copier needs servicing. Splash ColorCal cannot operate properly if the printer/copier is printing unevenly or if the scanner is too far out of specication. To verify that this is the case, set the active Pass Through prole to Uncalibrated in ColorCal, then print out the full area on an A4 or 8.5x11 page with 40% C, 40% M, and 40% Y color mix, with Splash Color Correction disabled in the Splash print driver. Examine the printed page to see if the output is an even gray with little variation. If there is signicant variation, this indicates that the printer/copier needs to be serviced. If the printer/copier needs servicing, contact Xerox Service.

Managing the Proles Folders

Splash color proles are located in the Splash Color Data folder in the Preferences Folder within the System Folder. This folder contains three proles folders:

Obsolete Proles contains older versions of the Splash v1.0 color proles. (If you did not upgrade from Splash v1.0 to v2.0 or v3.x, this folder is empty.) These proles can be used with a Splash v1.0 server if needed. They are not used for Splash v2.0/3.x color correction.

Old Style Proles contains Splash v1.0 one-dimensional color proles that were updated for use with Splash v2.0/3.x. If you created any custom color proles with Splash v1.0 and then upgraded to Splash v2.0/3.x, your custom proles are updated by Splash for use with v2.0 and then placed in this folder.

Calibration Sources contains the Splash v2.0/3.x multi-dimensional color proles.

To delete a color prole, be sure it is not selected in the Set Active Proles dialog box (see page 49), then remove the le from the Old Style Proles folder or Calibration Sources folder.

Switching Between Printer and Copier Modes To interrupt a print job to make copies:

1. Press the Interrupt button on the printer/copier. The green Interrupt light ashes, and the display on the printer/copier tells you to wait. Printing stops when the page in the printer/copier has nished printing.

Using the Printer/Copier Page 69

Page 70

2. When the Interrupt light goes out and the display on the printer/copier says Ready to make copies, proceed with your copy job.

3. When you nish making copies, press the yellow Clear All button. The printer/ copier goes back to printer mode in a few seconds, and printing resumes where it left off.

Note: If the Interrupt light is on, and you see the message Ready to make copies, press the Interrupt button to turn the Interrupt light off, then press the All Clear button to resume printing.

If you do not press the Clear All button in step 3, a time-out feature returns the printer/copier to the printer mode after you nish using the copier. The time-out interval is one minute, by default, but can be changed in the Splash Server applica- tion. (See the Splash DC Series v4.0 Set-Up Manual for more information.) If the time-out interval is allowed to pass, the Splash Server sends the next job in the queue, or the next copy of the interrupted job, to the printer.

You cannot interrupt a copy job to print, then resume the copy job where you left off once printing is completed. To cancel a copy job to print, press the Interrupt button, then press the yellow Clear All button. Printing begins immediately.

Changing the Paper Size in a Tray Before you change a paper size in a printer/copier paper tray, choose Stop Processing on the Splash Server to avoid misprinting an active job. After you insert a different size cassette, choose Continue Processing to resume printing. Refer to the printer/copier manual for complete instructions on how to change the paper size. See the Splash DC Series v4.0 Set-Up Manual for instructions on how to start and stop the Splash Server.

LEF Paper Substitution Notes If you are using Auto Tray Select, and you choose an SEF paper size that is unavail- able, the Splash Server substitutes the corresponding LEF paper size. Conversely, if you choose an LEF paper size that is unavailable, the Splash Server substitutes the corresponding SEF paper. In either case, the job prints with incorrect margins and the image may be clipped.

Splash DC Series v4.0 Reference

Note: Although both A5 LEF and A5 SEF paper sizes are supported by the DocuColor copier, these sizes are not available when printing to the DocuColor from the Splash DC Series Server.

Correcting Out of Paper Errors After a job is active, if there is no paper in the tray, Splash waits until the error tim- eout expires for you to add paper. A dialog box displays the amount of time you have to add paper. (The Status DA also displays a warning.) If no paper is inserted before the error timeout, you receive an error. and the job is transferred to the Error queue.

Note: The amount of time the Splash Server waits before transferring the job to the Error queue is congured in the Splash Server application. The default time is four minutes. See the Splash DC Series v4.0 Set-Up Manual for more information.

You receive an error message, and the job is immediately returned to the queue:

When you choose a specic tray in the Splash Print dialog box, and the paper size you specied in the Page Setup dialog box is not available in the tray

When you choose Automatic tray selection in the Print dialog box, and no tray is set for the correct size

To print the job successfully, correct the error condition, then highlight the job in the Splash Status DA or Server Status window and choose Remove Hold from the Jobs menu.

Note: When you print to the bypass tray on the DocuColor Pro, Splash waits ve minutes for you to insert paper into the bypass tray.

Printing 12" x 18" Images The Tabloid Bleed and A3 Bleed page size options print images to 12" x 18" paper. Tabloid Bleed prints full bleed for Tabloid documents, up to 11.5"x17.7". A3 Bleed prints full bleed for A3 documents up to 297mm x 435mm. If horizontal clipping occurs for a document on 12" x 18" paper, print it using the A3 Bleed paper size. If clipping does not occur for a document, print it using the Tabloid Bleed paper size.

DocuColor Pro Fuser Web Notes If the Splash Server displays a message that the fuser web is low, this message can refer to either the fuser oil level or the fuser web for the DocuColor Pro copier. Go to the DocuColor and examine the message that appears at the copier to determine which item is in low supply.

IMPORTANT: Do not allow the fuser web to completely run out at the DocuColor Pro. This causes an internal failure at the copier. If the remaining amount of fuser web for the copier is low, contact Xerox Technical Service to replace the fuser web.

DocuColor Pro Toner Dispenser Notes If the DocuColor Pro copier interface reports that a toner dispenser is almost bro- ken, contact Xerox Technical Service to replace the toner dispenser. If the toner dispenser needs to be replaced, you can continue to use the DocuColor Pro to create color photocopies, but you will not be able to print to the DocuColor Pro with Splash until the dispenser is replaced.

DocuColor Pro Servicing Notes Before entering the Key Operator mode or the Diagnostics mode at the DocuColor Pro copier, be sure to quit the Splash Server application and shut down the server computer rst. The Splash Server will lose contact with the DocuColor Pro if Key Operator mode or Diagnostics mode is opened while the Splash Server is running.

DocuColor Pro Failure Affects Server If the DocuColor Pro copier experiences an internal failure, the Splash Server will lose contact with the printer/copier. You must restart the Splash Server computer and re-open the Splash Server application to resume print processing.

Setting the DocuColor Pro Printer Timer The DocuColor Pro includes two printer timer controls that affect Splash printing to the DocuColor Pro. When copy or print controls are used at the Docu- Color Pro, the Splash Server stops sending print jobs to the printer/copier until the DocuColor Pro becomes available for Splash printing again. The Printer Rejection and Printer Acceptance Timers together control the length of the pause between the time the DocuColor Pro becomes available for Splash printing and the time Splash printing resumes at the DocuColor Pro.

When the DocuColor Pro copier is set up and congured, these controls are set for a one minute delay. This is the minimum pause allowed. If delays of more than one minute occur, use this procedure to set the Printer Rejection Timer and Printer Acceptance Timer to their recommended congurations. If setting these controls does not resolve the problem, contact Xerox technical support.

To use this procedure, you must enter Tools Mode at the DocuColor Pro. Entering Tools Mode requires a password. Contact the Key Operator for the DocuColor Pro or contact Xerox technical support. For more information about Tools Mode, refer to the DocuColor Pro Operators Manual.

To set the Printer Rejection Timer and Printer Acceptance Timer:

1. Quit the Splash Server application.

2. At the DocuColor Pro, open the Tools Mode on the control screen.

3. Touch Timer in the Tools Mode screen.

4. Enter 0 (zero) minutes for the Post Job Timeout.

5. Enter 1 (one) minute for the Programming Timeout.

6. Enter 10 (ten) minutes for the Power Saver.

7. Enter 10 (ten) minutes for the Screen Saver.

8. Touch Printer Timer.

Splash DC Series v4.0 Reference

9. Enter 0 (zero) minutes for the Rejection Timer.

10. Enter 1 (one) minute for the Acceptance Timer. (Setting this to zero causes an innite delay.)

11. Touch Save twice to save the settings and return to the Tools Mode screen.

12. Touch Exit to leave Tools Mode.

13. Open the Splash Server application to resume printing.

Splash Error Messages

Installation Messages Some INITs and control panel devices (cdevs) can interfere with the proper installation of your Splash software, resulting in an error message when you try to start the Splash Server application. Different messages appear for conicts caused by different inits and cdevs.

If you see an error message when you try to launch the Server application and you have just installed (or reinstalled) your Splash software (or any other software), remove any unnecessary inits and cdevs from the Extensions and Control Panels folders. (Do not remove the DocuColor Board Startup le or any of the Splash les from the Extensions folder; these les are required for the Server to operate properly.) Restart the Server and launch the Server application again. If this does not solve the problem, follow the instructions in Splash Diagnostics on page 109.

Splash Diagnostics

The Splash Diagnostics application provides a way to troubleshoot the Splash Interface Board quickly and accurately. Use the Splash Diagnostics application when printer output is abnormal, or when the Splash Server application fails to report an obvious error condition (for example, the printer/copier has a paper jam, or is turned off, but the error is not reported by the Server application).

Before Running Splash Diagnostics Follow these steps before you run the Splash Diagnostics application.

1. Close the Splash Server application.

2. Turn power off for the DocuColor printer/copier.

3. Disconnect Splash Server from printer/copier.

Running the Splash Diagnostics Utility 1. IMPORTANT: Quit the Splash Server application before running the

Splash Diagnostics utility.

2. Double-click the Splash Diagnostics icon to start the diagnostics utility. The Splash Diagnostics utility is located in the Splash Diagnostics Folder within the Splash Utilities folder on the Splash Server hard disk.

Splash Diagnostics Page 109

Page 110

The Splash Diagnostics window appears.

3. Click Run.

The Reports status window shows the progress of each series of tests. When all tests have completed, the Diagnostics utility creates a le with the test results and places it in the same folder as the Diagnostics utility. If the Diagnostics utility reports errors for any tests, contact Xerox Technical Support and report the errors.

4. When the tests have completed, a message appears.

5. Click Restart. The Splash Server computer restarts.

Splash DC Series v4.0 Reference

Returning the System to Normal

After you run the Splash Diagnostics utility:

1. If you disconnected the Splash cables from the server computer or the DocuColor, reconnect the cables.

2. Turn power on for the Splash Server computer.

3. Turn power on for the DocuColor printer/copier.

4. Start the Splash Server application to resume print processing.

Troubleshooting After a Completed Test If the Server application does not work, or if the printer/copier produces abnormal prints, even though all diagnostic tests ran successfully and xerographic copies are normal, the problem may be in the cables that connect the Splash interface card to the printer/copier. Replace the printer cables with new cables. If you still need assistance, call Xerox Technical Support.

InputAttributes: The entries for the slots in the InputAttributes dictionary corre- spond to the following input sources in the Xerox MajestiK Printer/Copier:

The InputAttributes dictionary always contains the actual installed page sizes for slots 0, 1, and 2. If the physical tray is not installed in the printer, the corresponding entry in the InputAttributes dictionary will be set to null. The only time this will happen for the main tray (slot 0) is when the printer is booted and the tray is not installed.

If a job is sent to the printer and the tray is removedor the actual and software- specied tray sizes varya dialog box is displayed to alert the user to the problem. The PostScript Interpreter has no role in this process.

2.0 Interpreter Parameters

The semantics for interpreter parameters appear in the Reference Manual. For more recent parameters and their semantics, see the Supplement.

2.1 User Parameters

User parameters can be altered, within reasonable limits, by any PostScript language program without requiring a password. The user parameters establish temporary policies on matters such as whether to insert new items into caches.

The setuserparams operator sets user parameters, and the currentuserparams operator reads their current values. The initial value of user parameters at the time the printer is turned on for the rst time is product dependent. Unless otherwise specied, all user parameters are subject to save and restore.

The following table is a list of the user parameters present in the Xerox MajestiK Printer/Copier.

2.2.1 Product Strings

product strings: The systemdict operators languagelevel, product, revision, seri- alnumber, and version have the following values:

= also dened in statusdict

2.3 Device Parameters

Device parameters are set using the operator setdevparams and read using the operator currentdevparams. Device parameters are similar to system parameters in that they require a password, are global to the PostScript environment, and have similar persistence characteristics. As with system parameters, some of these parameters can be stored in non-volatile memory.

One property that distinguishes device parameters from both system and user parameters is that device parameters may be interdependent: the legality of a value for a given parameter might depend on the value of another parameter.

Device parameters are subdivided into sets that correspond to a particular device (%Serial%, %disk2%, etc.). Even if two products have the same device, the param- eters in the set might differ, for example, because the hardware support for that device differs.

3.0 Resource Categories

The following tables list the factory-installed categories and resource instances. New resources of the regular resource categories can be installed by the user. For example, the user can add font and pattern resource. The categories of implicit resources represent built-in capabilities of the interpreter. For example, the Font- Type category indicates that the interpreter understands types 0, 1, 3, 4,5, and 6. There are also categories used to dene new categories.
