Bootstrap Project for JEPS

Objective

The Joint European Printer Server (JEPS) project was intended to be the basis for developing the necessary technologies needed to meet the competitive requirements of the medium- to high-speed printer market in the 1990s. It is also intended to promote standards in the area of interfaces and protocols suitable for high-performance multicolour printers, and to accelerate, by up to two years, the release of new products that will constitute the cornerstone of the new generation of mid-range printers.
The joint European printer server (JEPS) project is intended to be the basis for developing the necessary technologies needed to meet the competitive requirements of the medium speed to high speed printer market in the 1990s. It is also intended to promote standards in the area of interfaces and protocols suitable for high performance multicolour printers, and to accelerate, by up to 2 years, the release of new products that will constitute the cornerstone of the new generation of mid range printers.
The PREJEPS project is focussed on the specifications and preliminary studies of a printer server, to be inserted in various systems and network environments, capable of driving several different existing or new printers.
This server includes a printer server itself, an adaptable printer imager, and 2 printer devices based on 2 different technologies developed in Europe. These technologies had already proved their feasibility in different speed ranges: a high speed printer of 100 ppm with multicolour capability and medium to high resolution, and a medium speed printer of 40 to 80 ppm with bicolour capability and high resolution.
The adaptable imager study covered the requirements of a family of printer engines, starting with the 2 mentioned above and followed by engines characterized by adaptability in the 20 to 100 ppm speed range and up to 600 dots per inch resolution with colour and grey scale capability.
