Scheduling page parameter variations for discrete job elements

U.S. Patent Number: 5384620

Abstract: A system for providing a memory for storing page mode parameters and a controller for providing images in optional page modes for producing a set of images with discrete elements of the set of images processed in a selected page mode independent of the page mode of other elements. This is accomplished by identifying elements of the set of images with page mode parameters and responding to the page mode parameters to alter the operation of the machine dependent upon the identified page mode parameters.
