Example. If you had an LPD printer and wanted to reset it at the start of each print job, you could set up a user-defined print queue named "clear_printer" that issues a PCL reset command (Escape-E) at the beginning of each job. You could set this up as follows: First, set up the print queue: a. Name a string: Type "reset_string" into the String Name field in row 1. b. Define the string's value: Type "\1BE" (Escape-E) into the Value field in row 1. (Alternatively, you could type "\1B\45".) c. Name the queue: Type "clear_printer" into the Queue Name field in row 5. d. Set up the prepend string: Type "reset_string" into the Prepend String field in row 5. e. Leave the Append String field in row 5 blank. f. Set the queue type: Using the pull-down menu, set the Queue Type field in row 5 to "RAW". Then, set up the printer to use the queue, making sure to specify "clear_printer" when asked for a queue name. (For details of setting up the printer, refer to Chapter 5, "Configuring for LPD Printing".) After that, any print jobs sent to the printer -- either from the server or from a client computer that has set up that printer -- will include a reset command at the beginning of the job.
