METHODS, SYSTEMS AND PROCESSOR-READABLE MEDIA FOR PREVENTING RENDERING JOBS/SETS FROM BEING SPLIT BEFORE STACKER IS FULL

摘要

Methods, systems and processor-readbale media for preventing a job/set splitting across a stacker. A splitting prevention module can be configured to include a prevent job splitting feature or a prevent set splitting feature. The prevent job splitting feature and the prevent set splitting feature can be selected by a user so that the stacker will not begin stacking the job/set unless the stacker possesses a capacity for stacking the complete job/set. The stacker automatically unloads the job/set with respect to a job/set boundary provided by the user. Such an approach prevents the jobs/sets from being split when the stacker goes full.

1. A method for preventing job/set splitting across a stacker, said method comprising:
configuring a splitting prevention module in association with a server to include a prevent job splitting feature and a prevent set splitting feature; selecting via said server said prevent job splitting feature or said prevent set splitting feature so that said stacker will not begin stacking a job/set unless said stacker possesses a capacity for stacking said complete job/set; and automatically unloading said job/set with respect to a job/set boundary to prevent said job/set from being split when said stacker becomes full.
