Toshiba 230L, 200L, 280, 3511 Top Margin, Text Length, Banner, Set the top margin to value lines

— Top Margin

The top margin position can be specified with the following option.

Option Value	Alternate	Description
	Value
tm=value		Set the top margin to value lines.

If the top margin is set too high or too low part of the text may not appear due to the printer’s unprintable region. The top margin will be ignored if it is set to a value greater than the printer’s logical page length. Setting this value may affect the number of lines specified using the page length option.

If this option is not specified the command will not be sent so the printer’s default value will be used.

Example: The command to set the top margin to ten lines is “lp –o tm=10 filename”.

— Text Length

The text length can be specified using the following options.

Option Value	Alternate	Description
	Value
tl=value		Set the length to value lines.

If the text length is set too high, the part of the text may not appear due to the printer’s unprint- able area. The text length will be ignored if it is set to a value greater than the printer’s logical page length minus the top margin. The text length is specified in rows from the top margin. Set- ting this value may affect the number of lines specified using the page length option.

If this option is not specified the command will not be sent so the printer’s default value will be used.

Example: The command to set the text length to 40 lines is “lp -o tl=40 filename”.

— Banner Page

A banner page is automatically generated for each file in each job. The banner page contains the following items. The banner page is always sent as a PCL5e job.

•The name of the user that submitted the print job.

•The job ID number and from which workstation it was submitted.

•The title of the job. This title can be specified using the “-t” option. The same title is used for every file within a job. The default title is controlled by the “lp” command.

•A list of the options that were specified to print the job.

•The number of copies of the job that will be printed.

•The name of the printer or its IP address.

•The date and time when the job was printed according to the print server.

•A short summary listing the available options.

Only one copy of the banner page is printed for each file, even if a number of copies of the job are requested. The banner page is sent to the equipment as a separate sub-job so that it is never stapled to the document.

The banner page is printed with the following settings.

•Copies = 1.

•Stapling off.

•Orientation = portrait.

•Duplex off.

•Paper size as requested by the “-o” parameter or the printer’s default value.
