1-4 NPS/IPS Extension Operations Guide
Product overview
The following table shows the print mode (EPS, NPS, or IPS) in
which the printing system must be operating to process specific
data formats.
Table 1-1 Point mode required to process supported data streams
NOTE: When the system is printing an IPDS job using DocuPrint
NPS/IPS, PostScript and PCL data streams can be spooled in the
background. If a PostScript or PCL job is printing, the NPS/IPS
software reports a not-ready condition back to the host until the
printer becomes available.
*IPDS is not available as of this printing for the DocuPrint EPS
systems.
Differences in supported software features
Because of differences between NPS/IPS and EPS in regard to
the PostScript, PCL, ASCII, and VIPP interpreters, some features
are supported in NPS/IPS mode that are not supported in EPS
mode, and vice versa. Listed below are some features that are
supported differently by the two different operating systems.
