InterForm Manual - System & Method

� TIP �
Code for Placement: The possibility of placing the back page overlay on the front of
the physical printed page is a unique feature of the system,
which overcomes a common problem for duplex printing on
pre-printed forms. Normally a HP printer will print the back
page of a duplex print first in order to have it faced down in
the output tray. This means pre-printed forms has to be
turned upside-down in the input paper tray depending on the
print being simplex or duplex. When stating F (front) as code
for placement you will not have to do this, as the system will
reverse the order before printing.
An easy way of making “short bind” duplex, is to define the front page overlay as normal, but
rotate the back page overlay 180 degrees.
� WARNING �
Do not combine duplex with spooled file data on both front and back (without a fixed back
page overlay) and copy management. If you combine the two the result is not what you might
expect...

This function is used to set the attributes of the spool file you want to merge the

spool file when using the PCL viewer (F14). This is required, though
the information is used for PCL viewing only.
Primary/
Secondary Set: If you have defined Copy Management for the overlay (see page 66
and 58) you can test if you have made the correct selection of overlay
elements, by printing the overlay elements for one of the two sets
only. If this field is left blank (default) the system will as default pick
the Primary set.
Overlay Selector: If you have defined an Overlay Selector you can test if it is able to
