Program the PCL Paper Stock Sequences to Pull From a Specific, Paper Tray at the Printer

Page 158 highlights

Programming Features Program the PCL Paper Stock Sequences to Pull From a Specific Paper Tray at the Printer This programming process is intended for the experienced user. If tray calls are not working as intended, check the PCL dump of the file to make sure the expected escape sequences are being used. As long as the proper sequence is mapped to some unique parameter in the DocuSP's PCL Paper Source dialog box, the tray call should work. For the DocuSP operator this is a two step process that involves programming the Paper Tray Settings in the Printer Manager and the PCL Paper Source in the Queue Manager. For the document creator it is a one step process. PCL has no concept of color, you must use 'Paper Source.' The DocuSP Queue Manager has a PCL Paper Source option window that maps paper sources 1-6 to a specific paper color or type. Overview example of 2-step procedure: Step #1: Program this in the pcl as 'esc&l2H.' The 'l' is a lowercase 'L' not the number '1.' This designates print from manual tray as defined by PCL. Step #2: Program the DocuSP Queue Manager Paper Source to 'manual envelope tray' option to plain, blue, non-drilled, weight 80 g/m² (20 lb). When an 'esc&l2H' is programmed, the printer will pull from any paper tray that is programmed for the correct paper size that is plain, blue, non-drilled, weight 80 g/m² (20 lb) cover. Additional Information: With DocuSP, the number value in these escape codes corresponds to the PCL Paper Source programmed in Queue Properties. These values can differ between PCL products (the numbers 1-6 placed before the 'H' can represent different kinds of trays depending on the product). PCL Escape Code * &l1H &12H &13H &14H &15H &16H Paper Tray Standard Manual Paper Feed Manual Envelope Feed Lower Large Capacity Envelope Feed * 'l' is a lower case 'L' not the number 1. Detailed example: The following is how you should program the paper trays in the Printer Manager and the PCL Paper Source in Queue Manager Properties. • 'Standard tray pulling red paper' from Paper Tray 1 on red paper. • 'Lower tray pulling blue paper' from Paper Tray 2 on blue paper. • 'Large capacity tray pulling white' from Paper Tray 3 on white paper. 1.

Program the PCL Paper Stock Sequences to Pull From a Specific
Paper Tray at the Printer
This programming process is intended for the experienced user. If tray calls are not working as
intended, check the PCL dump of the file to make sure the expected escape sequences are being
used. As long as the proper sequence is mapped to some unique parameter in the DocuSP's
PCL Paper Source dialog box, the tray call should work. For the DocuSP operator this is a two
step process that involves programming the Paper Tray Settings in the Printer Manager and the
PCL Paper Source in the Queue Manager. For the document creator it is a one step process.
PCL has no concept of color, you must use 'Paper Source.' The DocuSP Queue Manager has a
PCL Paper Source option window that maps paper sources 1-6 to a specific paper color or type.
Overview example of 2-step procedure:
Step #1: Program this in the pcl as 'esc&l2H.' The 'l' is a lowercase 'L' not the number '1.' This
designates print from manual tray as defined by PCL.
Step #2: Program the DocuSP Queue Manager Paper Source to 'manual envelope tray' option to
plain, blue, non-drilled, weight 80 g/m² (20 lb).
When an 'esc&l2H' is programmed, the printer will pull from any paper tray that is programmed for
the correct paper size that is plain, blue, non-drilled, weight 80 g/m² (20 lb) cover.
Additional Information:
With DocuSP, the number value in these escape codes corresponds to the PCL Paper Source
programmed in Queue Properties. These values can differ between PCL products (the numbers
1-6 placed before the 'H' can represent different kinds of trays depending on the product).
