Setting Compatibility Operators

The LaserWriter Select 310 printer has an extensive collection of parameters that control its behavior. This section describes how to set the following types of parameters:

■system parameters

■page device parameters

■user parameters

■device parameters

■communication parameters

■engine device parameters

■parameters that are extensions to PostScript Level 1

■the printer error parameter

Table 2-4 lists the parameters by type, in the order described. Although certain parameters are described as persistent, the LaserWriter Select 310 printer does not have nonvolatile memory (EEROM), so the values of these parameters do not persist when the printer is turned off and then on again. However, they do persist between jobs if they are executed outside the server loop.
