setdefaultpapertray
Syntax | tray setdefaultpapertray – |
Definition When the server begins a job, it establishes the default paper tray as the tray from which it will feed paper, and it sets up an imageable area corresponding to the size of paper in that tray. The tray operand is an integer that must be set to one of the following values:
0for the main cassette (cassette 250)
1for the multipurpose tray
2for the optional cassette (cassette250/500)

setdostartpage
Syntax | bool setdostartpage – |
Definition Since the LaserWriter Select 310 printer has no start page, executing this operator with a value of true has no effect, and is ignored. The operator is present to maintain compatibility with the Personal LaserWriter NT.

setmargins
Syntax | top left setmargins – |
Definition This operator adjusts the printer’s margins, thus changing the alignment of the imageable area on the physical page. The top and left operands are integers that specify distances in device space. (The unit size is one device pixel or 1/300 inch.) A positive top widens the top margin, and a negative top narrows it, relative to the standard margin width. Similarly a positive left widens the left margin, and a negative left narrows it.
You should use setmargins only at installation time to correct any existing physical alignment errors. There are limits to the range of adjustment possible. The printer hardware imposes margins that cause the image to be clipped it is moved too close to the edge of the paper.
Note 1. The margins imposed by the hardware are not symmetrical with respect to the center of the paper.
Note 2. This operator in no way affects the dimensions of the imageable area.
