    Abstract: The disclosure discloses methods and systems for selectively applying clear colorant on one or more pages of a print job. The method includes receiving a print job including a document having a plurality of pages. Then, clear colorant attributes are received from a user via a user interface, the clear colorant attributes include type of clear colorant and one or more pages where clear is to be applied. An imposition template is received from the user via the user interface. The print job is decomposed into image data. The plurality of pages is re-arranged, based on the imposition template. The re-arranged pages are stored. Thereafter, clear colorant on the one or more pages as specified by the user is applied. The pages as specified by the user with clear colorant feature are printed and the remaining pages are printed in a normal printing mode.

    Abstract: Examples of a printing system are described herein. In an example, the printing system that uses the original print job created for the PDF/VT file for building a modified print job that includes a set of instructions to render the PDF/VT file which is modified on the run, or on the fly. The original print job includes instructions for using a fixed metadata. In one example, the fixed metadata is a Document Part (DPart) Metadata (DPM), and can be expressed in a hierarchical structure expressed in a tree structure called Document Part (DPart). The metadata is extracted from the PDF/VT file, and then used to build the modified print job including alternate instructions based on print conditions corresponding to the metadata.

    Abstract: According to exemplary methods, a print job is received into a computerized device that includes a marking device. The print job specifies an imposition template defining multiple logical pages for a single sheet of print media according to an electronic document. The print job attributes also contain a first print colorant order and a different second print colorant order. Groups of logical pages are defined for each print colorant order, and buffers are created in which raster data associated with each group of logical pages are merged and untouched pixels are marked as negative pixels. The information from each buffer is printed on a single sheet of print media. Following printing of each buffer, the sheet of print media is returned to the marking device, so that information from the next buffer can be printed on the same side of the sheet of print media, using the marking device.
