Turning on raster image spooling is recommended to get the
following benefits:
(1).Faster ripping of multiple copies.
When 2 or more copies of one PostScript print job are sent to
the printer, StylusRIP Professional only rips the job once. This
saves time and frees up hardware resources.
(2).Faster ripping
When this setting is on, StylusRIP Professional spools raster
images to the hard drive faster than it can output the print
data to the printer. Because of this, StylusRIP Professional is
ready to receive the next print job much quicker.
The drawback with spooling raster images is that spooling
requires a lot of free space on your hard disk. The amount of
free disk space that your print job requires depends on the
size of, resolution of, and amount of detail in the print job. If
you do not have enough space on your hard disk, StylusRIP
Professional stops spooling when the hard disk becomes full
and restarts spooling as soon as the previous print job is
finished. This can cause slower performance than if Raster
Spool Mode is turned off.
Note:
If you turn Raster Spool Mode on or off, you must quit and restart
StylusRIP Professional before the new setting takes effect.
Print After Spool :
When this setting is on, all print data will be spooled to the hard
disk and then printed.
Hide Taskbar Icon :
When this setting is set to on, the icons do not appear on the
taskbar when the main window is minimized, but appear on the
task tray instead. The default setting is off.
RIP Memory Size :
This sets the size of the memory used by StylusRIP Professional.
