Do Xerox printers or VIPP have built-in support for DataGlyphs?
A. The DocuPrint NPS family of Xerox printers optionally support an embedded DataGlyph encoder. This eliminates the need for inserting a DataGlyph encoder somewhere else in the printing pipeline. The DataGlyph can be activated either via a custom PostScript operator, or through VIPP (Variable-data Intelligent Postscript PrintWare). VIPP users (you’ll know it if you are one) should refer to the SHGLYPH operator on page 5-141 of the 2001 VIPP Reference Manual. These interfaces expose a subset of parameters available in the DataGlyph toolkit.
