    I've never even toyed with that option on mine. Not even sure what it actually is supposed to do. I just know it doesn't seem to let me do image shifts on the fly, so I stopped caring. :p

    yeah what does it even mean? I had a small daydream that i meant we could start running to top tray, so I could empty it while running. but no. so I also stopped caring.

    +1 on the image shifts. If that were possible... HALLELUJAH!

    your "real cheap" and mine might be light years apart. HAHA.

    if it doesnt have to do with the "magnificent, state of the art, answer to everyone's prayers" Cipress 500....theres not much investment happening.

    little note... I spend at least 75% of my time reworking jobs that machine screws up. :) its quite ridiculous actually. LOL

    "Reposition Output" used to allow you to tell the the machine to go back and restart or "Reposition Output" from certain page within a currently running job. Lets say you were printing a long run of a variable job and noticed and IQ defect. The idea would be that you could pause the machine/job, fix the issue and then restart it from a previous page to reprint the bad output. I got it to work once on an iGen3 (yes, it's been around that long). Been a long time since I have used it however. Would not suprise me if it did not work. No one really knew what it did so nobody complains that it doesn't worked.
    Xerox works of the old service paradigm that if the phone doesn't ring, then nothings wrong. Squeaky wheel gets the grease kind of reaction to customer issues.

    excellent, thanks! something else I have dreamed of when running variable prints.

    but Ive gotten good at holding/changing print range over the years. on many different printers...
