HP 625n Gigabit Ethernet Print Server manual Using the Embedded Web Server

Example. If you had an LPD printer and wanted to reset it at the start of each print job, you could set up a user-defined print queue named “clear_printer” that issues a PCL reset command (Escape-E) at the beginning of each job. You could set this up as follows:

First, set up the print queue:

a.Name a string: Type "reset_string" into the String Name field in row 1.

b.Define the string's value: Type "\1BE" (Escape-E) into the Value field in row 1. (Alternatively, you could type "\1B\45".)

c.Name the queue: Type "clear_printer" into the Queue Name field in row 5.

d.Set up the prepend string: Type "reset_string" into the Prepend String field in row 5.

e.Leave the Append String field in row 5 blank.

f.Set the queue type: Using the pull-down menu, set the Queue Type field in row 5 to "RAW".

Then, set up the printer to use the queue, making sure to specify "clear_printer" when asked for a queue name. (For details of setting up the printer, refer to Chapter 5, “Configuring for LPD Printing”.) After that, any print jobs sent to the printer -- either from the server or from a client computer that has set up that printer -- will include a reset command at the beginning of the job.
