HP traditional drivers

Network administrators can use the Form to Tray Assignment setting to specify, in the driver, the media size that is loaded into each available input tray. The use of forms constrains the choices that are available in the media-size list on the Advanced tab in the Document Defaults driver tabs. This constraint prevents (or reduces the likelihood of) tying up the product with media-mount messages that occur when users request sizes or types that are not available.

The trays listed in the Form to Tray Assignment setting include standard trays and optional accessory trays. Generally, items that are installed separately have a separate Installable Options setting. For example, for the HP LaserJet 2430t printer, tray 3 is listed in both the Form to Tray Assignment setting and the Installable Options setting.

The input trays listed here are also listed as media sources on the Page Setup tab.

Font Substitution Table

Clicking this option opens the font substitution table and makes available the options for changing the TrueType-to-PostScript font mapping.

Postscript Configure

The following controls are available in the Postscript section of the PS Emulation Driver Device Settings tab.

Available PostScript Memory

This control specifies the amount of available postscript memory and provides a spin box for changing this value. The available postscript memory is a subset of the product total physical memory. It is usually best to set the postscript memory to match what is shown on the configuration page. To print a configuration page, follow these steps:

1Press the SELECT button (the one with the check mark) to open the menus.

2Press the up and down buttons to scroll to INFORMATION, and then press the SELECT button.

3Press the up and down buttons to scroll to PRINT CONFIGURATION.

4Press the SELECT button to print the configuration page.

Output Protocol

This control specifies the protocol that the product uses for print jobs. The following options are available:

ASCII (default)

TBCP

Binary

When you click ASCII, data is sent in ASCII format (7-bit), which might take longer to print but can be sent through any I/O channel, such as a serial, parallel, or network port.

When you click TBCP (Tagged Binary Communications Protocol), all data except special control characters is sent in binary (8-bit) format. The binary formats can be sent over parallel or serial communications ports and are faster than sending data in ASCII format.
