  • "media-key"
  • "media-type"
  • "media-info"
  • "media-color"
  • "media-pre-printed"
  • "media-hole-count"
  • "media-order-count"
  • "media-size": "x-dimension" "y-dimension"
  • "media-weight-metric"
  • "media-back-coating"
  • "media-front-coating"
  • "media-recycled"

Job accounting for EFI Fiery Central

Job accounting is accounting of the media usage. The media usage, the pages actually printed, is available when:

  • The job is moved to the waiting room

  • The job is deleted, also in case the job is partly printed

  • The job is completed

The media usage is retrieved using the following attributes structure:

"job-sheets-col-actual"

"job-sheets" ("media-col")

Media information from Xerox FreeFlow

Media information support is disabled by default and cannot be activated by the customer.

To retrieve the media catalogue (a.k.a. stock library), Xerox FreeFlow uses the non-standard IPP attribute:

"media-col-database" ("media-col")

To retrieve the media loaded in trays, Xerox FreeFlow uses the standard IPP attribute:

"media-col-ready" ("media-col")
