Streaming

To be capable of printing extremely large print jobs in a productive way, the print path in the PRISMAsync Print Server is tuned to support streaming behaviour:

  • RIP while Receive, so that ripping can start before the whole job is received.

  • Jobs are accepted and spooled (independent of used protocol).

  • Limited number of pages (max 2000) are ripped ahead.

For streaming jobs, internal data is cleaned-up while printing. Therefore only one copy-set will be printed. The production of multiple copies of a same original is therefore the responsibility of the sending host or server. To delete a printing, streaming job, it must be stopped on sheet boundary first. The attributes of a streaming job cannot be edited.

If the history is enabled on the varioPRINT 140 Series, streaming jobs end up in the History queue. However, the streaming job cannot be copied to the list of waiting jobs for re-print.
