Interpress
Interpress is a page description language capable of describing
any two-dimensional image intended for a raster device, such as
a Xerox laser printing system. The function of Interpress is to
describe the appearance of data on a page; it is not a page
composition language. This functionality includes vector graphics
(sometimes referred to as line art), contour fonts, and pixel
arrays. Interpress also includes job management features such as
paper tray selection, output offsetting, stock selection, copy
count, and page selection on a copy basis.
An Interpress master can be created at a host or at a workstation
for transport through an Ethernet LAN to the LPS.
Depending on the capabilities of the software, the 4890 can
make full use of its highlight color features. Some of these Xerox
packages include:
•
VP 3.2
•
GlobalView Version 1.1 or higher
•
GlobalView Pro Illustrator
•
Docubuild.
With the Ethernet interface options installed, the 4890 can accept
print data in the form of Interpress masters.
The RIP and GVG options are required for printing complex
(Interpress Publication Set) documents. These options are not
required for simple (Interpress Commercial Set) documents.
