Page Size Command

The Page Size command designates the size of the paper which in turn defines the size of the logical page.

?& l # A

PAPER:

#= 1 - Executive (7¼ x 10½ in.) 2 - Letter (8½ x 11 in.)

3 - Legal (8½ x 14 in.)

6 - Ledger (11 x 17 in.)

26 - A4 (210mm x 297mm)

27 - A3 (297mm x 420mm)

ENVELOPES:

# = 80 - Monarch (Letter - 3 7/8 x 7½ in.) 81 - Com-10 (Business - 4 1/8 x 9½ in.) 90 - International DL (110mm x 220mm) 91 - International C5 (162mm x 229mm)

			100 - International B5 (176mm x 250mm)
	Default	=	2 (Configurable from Control Panel)
	Range	=	1, 2, 3, 6, 26, 27, 80, 81, 90, 91, 100 (Other values ignored)

Note	Refer to the “PCL Feature Support Matrix” in Chapter 1 of the PCL 5
	Comparison Guide or the printer User’s Manual for lists of supported
	paper and/or envelope sizes on specific printers.

Upon receipt of this command any unprinted pages are printed, the top margin, text length, and left and right margins are set to their user defaults, and any automatic macro overlay is disabled. The cursor is moved to the left edge of the logical page at the top margin on the following page (see Figure 5-5). Also, certain HP-GL/2 state variables are reset (refer to Table 5-1, under “Sending a Page Size Command:”).

The factory default Page Size is Letter (A4 for 220v option printer); however, a user default Page Size may be selected from the control panel. The Page Size command takes precedence over the printer’s control panel FORM setting.
