KPDL Settings
Smart duplex printing
This option automatically keeps a sheet of paper from being sent through the
duplex unit if the sheet is only printed on one side. The duplex unit is
bypassed for the following types of print jobs: a one page document, one
page from a multi-page document, or a multi-page document that prints onto
a single sheet. Selecting this option can reduce wear on the mechanical
duplex unit, and result in comparatively faster printing times.
Skip blank pages
This option prevents the printing system from outputting any page that
contains no data, or that has, at most, one space character. Selecting this
option can save paper, and result in comparatively faster printing times. This
feature is unavailable for booklet, duplex, or multiple pages per sheet
printing. When selected, Data passthrough is unavailable.
Data passthrough
This option reduces errors when printing complex jobs from applications that
use PostScript formatting. When selected, EMF spooling is unavailable in
the Advanced tab.
PDF Settings
Provides options for printing and saving documents to Adobe PDF format.
