2.Install the correct paper size into the printer.

3.Power the printer off for about five seconds, then power it back on again.

4.Release the job for printing at the printer’s controlling workstation.

The line format screens in DisplayWrite/36 (Command 20) also permit you to select “Justify,” which aligns the right margin. The PQ-8 supports justification for fixed fonts only. For best results using justification, change the zone width to 1 (instead of 6).

5.7.5PRINTING ON 11" X 17" OR A3 SIZE PAPER

Some printers, such as the HP LaserJet 4V printer, allow printing on 11" x 17" and A3 size paper. The PQ-8 automatically recognizes these larger paper sizes. However, at times it might be advantageous to force the printer to print on 11 x 17 inch or A3 size paper, even when the host sends requests for smaller paper sizes (letter, legal, A4, Executive). If this is desired, the PQ-8’s 11 x 17 (A3) selection should be turned ON through Host/PC download command 32 or through the setup software.

With this selection turned ON, the PQ-8 will request the printer to load A3 size paper when the host requests

A4 or A3, and 11 x 17 inch paper in all other cases. In addition, the PQ- 8’s APO feature (if turned ON) will automatically rotate all documents/reports with dimensions of 11 x 17 inches or smaller. To achieve COR in this case, the document/report has to be larger than 11 x 17 inches.

5.7.6PAPER-DRAWER SELECTION

OfficeVision/400 and DisplayWrite/36 allow the user to direct the print output to one of several paper sources regardless of whether the printer actually has 1, 2, 3 or more trays to pull paper from. On the host, several of these theoretical paper sources are called paper drawers. On the printer, the actual paper sources are usually called trays. The PQ-8 acts as the matchmaker between theoretical paper drawers and physical trays available on the printer.

The paper-drawer feature of the PQ-8 can be accessed through Host/PC download commands 13, 14, and 15 or through the setup software.
