Version 5.3.02 - Serendipity Software

file format (the Imaged file). Choices are Faster or Better. The default is Faster.
• Maximum Print Preview Resolution – Set the maximum resolution for the rendered preview. The default is
180dpi.
• Polling Service Refresh – Set the interval between poll service checks, i.e., how long between checks to see if
any RIPs require polling. The default is 50 seconds if the times are left at 0.
• Server Back Log – Number of days to keep the log. Older days are trimmed when the Server starts. Zero (0)
means the log will not be trimmed.
• Processes – Control the number of processes the machine will handle, i.e., the number of Imaging and
Rendering tasks simultaneously run on the Server. The defaults are 1/1. Up to one imaging and rendering task
can be set per CPU core the Server machine possesses. In practice, it is recommended the combined number of
imaging and rendering tasks be set to no more than the number of cores. For example, 4 CPU cores = 2 Image/2
Render.
• Minimum Broadcast Interval – Set the interval between the Server sending out updates to connected Clients.
The default interval is 2sec. High-­‐end systems with good networking are able to set the interval to 0sec for
slightly improved image/render times when processing large numbers of jobs. Sites using the Client remotely
connected via the internet should set a longer polling interval of 10-­‐20sec.
• Output Unknown Files to Printer – Output any unknown files direct to a printer. If this is unchecked, any
unknown files will result in errors and will not be output.
• Log Printed Jobs – When enabled, this option will log completed print jobs in the Server log. The jobname and
dimensions are noted.
• Secure Mode – Enable or disable Secure Mode.
• Mail Server – Enter the details of the mail server for error notification emails when using Secure Mode.
• Sender Email Address – Enter the details of the Sender (From) address for error notification emails.
Colour Management
• ICC Engine Accuracy – Select Faster or Better, depending on
preferences.
• Default ICC Profiles – Select the default ICC profiles used when
first creating a new Pagesetup (Input profiles) and Media
(Output profiles).
• Version 3.4 spot colour handling – This is a compatibility
setting for users with Spot colour setups, upgraded from
Versions v3.4 or earlier to get consistent results from spot
jobs. It is recommended as a temporary setting only and
setups should be recreated using the improved and more
accurate (post v3.4) spot colour handling.
• Apply ICC Correction to CMYK Specials – Select this to apply
ICC correction to CMYK Specials.
• Force Relative Colourimetric Media White – Various ICC
profiling packages and some older ICC v2 profiles included an
Lab value for media (paper) white in the Relative
Colourimetric Intent LUT. This has the effect of printing a paper layer when printing with Relative
Colourimetric rendering intent. When enabled, this option ignores the Lab value for paper in the Relative LUT,
leaving paper white areas unprinted.
• CMS Dithering – Disabled by default. Use CMS Dithering for smoother results whenever conversion between 16
bits to 8 bits is required.
• Change System Specials – Select a default Special Colour Set for plate matching. This is used by the RIPMonitor
and polling service for plate assigning. Colours in this set are automatically assigned in the RIPMonitor.
• Unknown Specials – Select a Special Colour Set (optional) to which unknown special/spot colours included in
PDF or Postscript jobs can be automatically added.
Working Paths
Working Paths lists the default location of the paths the Server uses to
process jobs.
• Raster – Holds all the imaged, rendered and print jobs while
they are live in the system.
