Compaq Software Product Description ___________________________________________________________________ PRODUCT NAME: DECprint Supervisor (DCPS) for OpenVMS, SPD 44.15.10 Version 1.8 DESCRIPTION DECprint Supervisor (DCPS[TM]) for OpenVMS is a family of layered prod- ucts that run on OpenVMS Alpha and OpenVMS VAX systems to provide ac- cess to selected PostScript[R] Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 printers. The DECprint Supervisor family consists of the following products: o DECprint Supervisor for OpenVMS, Base DCPS-Base drives DIGITAL and selected Compaq PostScript printers, and supports files formatted in PostScript and ANSI-Compliant DIGITAL Printing Protocol Level 3 (DEC PPL3). It also supports these print- ers' special features, such as tray selection and two sided print- ing. DCPS-Base also allows files formatted in Hewlett-Packard PCL[R] 5 and PCL 5e Printer Languages (PCL 5/5e) to be printed on DIGITAL and selected Compaq PostScript printers that have a native (built- in) PCL 5 or PCL 5e interpreter. See the Other Hardware Required section of the SPD for specific models. The license rights to this product are included with the OpenVMS operating system. o DECprint Supervisor for OpenVMS, Open DCPS-Open drives selected third party PostScript printers and sup- ports files formatted in PostScript and ANSI (DEC PPL3). It also supports these printers' special features, such as tray selection and two sided printing. DCPS-Open allows files formatted in PCL 5 or PCL 5e to be printed on certain PostScript printers that have a native PCL 5 or PCL 5e interpreter. See the Other Hardware Re- quired section of the SPD for specific models. You purchase the li- cense rights for this product separately. July 2000 o DECprint Supervisor for OpenVMS, Plus DCPS-Plus includes value added features, such as number-up, layup, automatic data type detection and high speed image printing, plus the full range of translators for the most popular printer languages. You purchase the license rights for this product separately. In or- der to use these advanced printing features with third-party print- ers, you also need a DCPS-Open license. DECprint Supervisor software consists of the following components: o A print symbiont that processes print requests for the host on which it resides. o Software to transmit the request and associated data over the fol- lowing protocols: - Ethernet to a PrintServer printer via DECnet or TCP/IP using Com- mon Printer Access Protocol (CPAP) - Ethernet via TCP/IP to a printer with a network interface card (NIC) that supports the bidirectional raw TCP/IP socket proto- col - Ethernet via TCP/IP to a printer connected to a print server or a terminal server that supports the bidirectional raw TCP/IP socket protocol - AppleTalk[R] over Ethernet or LocalTalk[R] - Local Area Transport (LAT) - Serial line o Translators to convert various non-PostScript files into the PostScript language for printing. o Page formatting capabilities such as the ability to print multi- ple page images on a single side of a sheet of paper and to spec- ify borders, margins and page offsets. 2 o A series of PostScript tools for application developers. These in- clude a PostScript error handler and Font Encoding Vectors for the ISO Latin Alphabet Number 1 (ISO 8859/1) and DIGITAL Multinational Character Set for use with all the PostScript text fonts that are built into DIGITAL and selected Compaq PostScript printers. Install DECprint Supervisor software on each node that has print queues for PostScript printers. A DCPS-Open license must be installed on each node that has queues that connect to third-party PostScript printers. However, PATHWORKS includes the right to use DCPS-Open when printing from PATHWORKS clients. Therefore, PATHWORKS clients printing through PATHWORKS servers to third party printers do not need a separate DCPS- Open license. A DCPS-Plus license is required for each node that has queues that take advantage of the DCPS-Plus features, whether they con- nect to Compaq, DIGITAL, GENICOM or third-party printers. To use the value added features with supported third party printers, you need both the DCPS-Open and the DCPS-Plus licenses. A system running DECprint Supervisor software can transmit print re- quests to many Compaq, DIGITAL, GENICOM and third party printers on a TCP/IP, DECnet, LAT or AppleTalk network. To communicate with a printer on a TCP/IP network, DIGITAL TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS software or Process Software MultiNet[R] for OpenVMS or TCPware[R] for OpenVMS soft- ware must be installed on your system. To communicate with a printer on an AppleTalk network, the AppleTalk for OpenVMS network software that is included with the PATHWORKS for OpenVMS (Macintosh) software product must be installed on your system. Note: PATHWORKS for OpenVMS (Macintosh) has been retired and is no longer supported. For DIGITAL PrintServer printers, whether using the TCP/IP or DECnet protocol, PrintServer Software must be installed on at least one sys- tem in your network. Basic Printing Features 3 Basic printing features are provided by DCPS-Base for DIGITAL and se- lected Compaq and GENICOM PostScript printers, and by DCPS-Open for third-party PostScript printers, within the limitations of the sup- ported print devices. Not all basic features are available on all sup- ported devices. Basic features include: o PostScript printing. The print symbiont passes PostScript files di- rectly to the printer. DECprint Supervisor does not interpret or translate PostScript files. Therefore, they must be created using standard PostScript Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 operators as de- fined within the printer itself. o ANSI (DEC PPL3) printing. DECprint Supervisor translates ANSI files into PostScript for printing on the output device. These ANSI files may contain ASCII text, sixel graphics and other features of DIGITAL's ANSI-compliant Printing Protocol Level 3. o Selection of input tray via INPUT_TRAY, SHEET_SIZE, or PAGE_SIZE parameters and output tray via OUTPUT_TRAY, within the limitations of the printer and the tray-naming conventions to provide such fea- tures. o Rotation of the page via the PAGE_ORIENTATION parameter for non- PostScript files only. o Selection of single-sided, double-sided, or tumble printing when available on the printer, via the SIDES parameter. o Formatting of ANSI text files via the /HEADER, /FORM, /SPACE and /FEED qualifiers and the TAB parameter. o Control of ANSI file margins, page setup and wrap or truncate op- tions as specified by the DEFINE/FORM command. o Status and error messages sent to the user's terminal, may be printed on the job trailer page or job log page, written to a log file, or displayed on the operator's console. 4 o Use of device control modules for basic data types via the /SETUP qualifier. PostScript modules may contain any PostScript operators supported by the printer in the printing context. o Collection of accounting information for each print job as follows: sheets of paper printed, the number of RMS Gets and the number of QIO Writes. All Compaq, DIGITAL and GENICOM printers support this feature except where noted in the Other Hardware Required section of the SPD. This feature may not be available with third-party print- ers. o Access to the PCL 5 or PCL 5e interpreter native to selected print- ers. Printers for which the native PCL interpreter is supported are listed in the Other Hardware Required section of the SPD. o Access to DCPS product features for printers with an AppleTalk con- nection in a PATHWORKS environment. o Support for PrintServer printers on DECnet or TCP/IP interconnects using CPAP protocol (TCP/IP requires DIGITAL TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS or Process Software MultiNet for OpenVMS or TCPware for OpenVMS. o Support for printers via network interface cards, print servers and terminal servers that support bidirectional raw TCP/IP socket. Advanced Printing Features Advanced printing features are provided by DCPS-Plus for Compaq, DIGITAL, GENICOM or third-party PostScript printers, within the limitations of the supported print devices. Third-party printers also require the DCPS- Open license. Advanced features include: o Automatic data type detection and switching. The software attempts to determine the data type of the file. If successful, it will au- tomatically translate, if necessary, and print the file. If it can- not determine the file data type, it will use the default data type defined by DATA_TYPE=AUTOMATIC. If the file is printed using the data type defined by DATA_TYPE=AUTOMATIC, the symbiont will look for a switch to PostScript command (%!) and 5 continue to process the rest of the file as PostScript. This switch may occur only once per file. The switch to PostScript feature is not available when DCPS uses a printer's native PCL interpreter to process the file. o Printing non-PostScript data types on the PostScript printer. Trans- lators are provided to translate the following data types into PostScript for printing: - DDIF (bitonal Image subset only) This requires DECwindows soft- ware or DECimage Application Services (DAS), the latter of which is available only on OpenVMS VAX systems - PCL Level 4 (as implemented on the HP[R] LaserJet[R] IID) - IBM[R] Proprinter[R] XL24 - ReGIS (monochrome output only) - Tektronix[R] 4010/4014 - ASCII LIST translator that formats and numbers ASCII files. This translator numbers each line of text, creates alternating bars of gray and white in the background and creates a running head of the file name and page number. o Printing two or more page images on a single side of a sheet via the NUMBER_UP parameter. o Specifying page layup features via the LAYUP_DEFINITION parameter. Page layup features include Borders, Margins, Margin Alternation, Pages Per Sheet, First Page, Page Order and Page Grid. Layup def- inition options may be provided directly, as arguments to the LAYUP_ DEFINITION parameter, or indirectly, as the contents of a file spec- ified by that parameter. o Specifying a range of pages of the file to be printed via the PAGE_ LIMIT parameter. o Automatically scaling a page created for one paper size so that it fits on a different paper size via use of both the PAGE_SIZE and SHEET_SIZE parameters on the same print command. 6 o Printing multiple uncollated copies of each sheet via the SHEET_ COUNT parameter. o Use of device control modules for all data types via the /SETUP qual- ifier. ANSI modules may include control sequences. PCL modules may include binary font data. ANSI (DEC PPL3) Emulation Printing of ANSI text and sixel graphics is compatible with DIGITAL's ANSI-compliant PPL3 printers. Note: PostScript printers differ in the amount of virtual memory they have available for printing and font storage. Files that require down- loading of fonts may be printed differently, may print more slowly, or may fail to print, on some printers. Third-Party Printing Devices The DCPS-Open license extends to selected third-party PostScript print- ers the support equivalent to that provided for a similar Compaq, DIGITAL or GENICOM printer with the DCPS-Base license, within the capability of the third-party printer. The Other Hardware Required section of the SPD lists the supported third- party printers. Compaq makes no representation relative to the use of this product to drive PostScript devices not listed in this SPD. The use of the DCPS-Open product to drive PostScript devices not listed on this SPD is not warranted nor supported.
