INCREASING JOB SPEED

Bi-directional printing
You can set up bi-directional printing for the workflow. Bi-directional printing is faster than
unidirectional printing, as the print head prints in both directions. However, the result may
be less accurate. Not all printers support bi-directional printing.
TO ACTIVATE BI-DIRECTIONAL PRINTING
1 Go to System Manager. In the layout area, click the workflow. On the Workflow tab, open the
Speed pane.
2 Select “Print bi-directional”.
3 Save your changes.
Adobe print engines
You can speed up job processing by increasing the number of Adobe print engines that are
used. Normally, jobs are processed one after another by one single CPU core. By increasing
the number of Adobe PostScript 3 engines and Adobe PDF print engines, you can process
multiple PostScript/PDF jobs simultaneously.
TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF ADOBE PRINT ENGINES
1 Go to System Manager. On the Tools menu, click System Information.
The System Information dialog box appears.
2 Under “General settings”, increase the number of print engines to be used.
The default number of print engines for CPSI and for APPE is equal to the maximum
number of CPU cores that are available for the operating system — two for 32-bit computers
and four for 64-bit computers.
3 Save your changes.
This setting is a global setting that is applied to all workflows. You must restart the Fiery XF
server for the new value to take effect.
