PRESCRIBE Command Reference STPC - set STaPle Counter Format STPC [staple-count or letter M (or m)]; Parameter staple-count: number of sheets to be stapled at a time (When this parameter is omitted, '0' is assumed): 2 to 501 = divides output pages into stacks of pages of this value and staples each of them. The odd stack is also stapled. M = divides output pages into stacks of pages equal to the maximum allowable number of sheets of stapling and staples each of them. The odd stack is also stapled. 0 = same as M above but does not divide nor staple a job at all if the total number of pages of the job is more than the maximum allowable number of sheets of stapling. The odd stack is neither stapled. -1 = same as 0 above but the odd stack is stapled. Function The STPC command specifies the number of sheets that the stapler (finisher) staples a job. This command does not execute stapling therefore should be used with the STPL (staple) command. For more simplified explanation on the staple-count, here is an example. To print a 50-page job using a DF-31 finisher (20 pages stapler): STPC parameter M or m 15 0 -1 Stapling operation 20 sheets, 20 sheets, and 10 sheets are stapled. 15 sheets, 15 sheets, 15 sheets, and 5 sheets are stapled. No stapling occurs. Only the last 10 sheets are stapled. File To staple every 5 sheets of a job at the center 2 staples, printing 15 copies of the job: !R! STPL 3; STPC 5; JOBS 2, 15, 1, 0, 1, "Interim Report 1", "Steve", "09/22/02 19:24"; TEXT "This is Interim Report 1 ..."; PAGE; UNIT C; BOX 5,10; PAGE; JOBT; EXIT; 1 This value depends on the stapler to be used. 340
