Resource based scheduling

Resource Based scheduling is the default setting on the Xerox
Freeflow Print Server. It schedules jobs only as the resources
available to run them become available.

To set Resource Based scheduling, perform the following:

1. Select [Setup] on the main menu.

2. Select [System Preferences].

3. Under Scheduling Mode, click Resource Based Scheduling.

NOTE: See the Online Help for detailed procedures.

Hot folder submission

Hot folders provides a fast and convenient method to submit print-
ready jobs into network folders. It enables users to drag and drop
files into any Xerox Freeflow Print Server queue for automatic
printing.

This supports both Page Description Language (PDL) jobs with or
without Xerox Printing Instruction Format (XPIF) tickets. The
ability to support XPIF tickets with PDL files adds flexibility when
users want specific settings for jobs instead of default queue
settings.

To enable Hot Folders, perform the following:

1. Right-click on a queue

2. Select [Hot Folder]

3. Select [Enable Hot Folder]

NOTE: Only System Administrators can Enable or Disable Hot
Folders. See the Online Help for more details.
