6.3.3.3 Entering Option Name and Value Settings

The text for specifying Option Name and Value Settings is based on the text appearing in the printer operator panel. Most option names are unique and occur only once. For these options it is possible to use the syntax shown below.

Option Name = Value;

The Option Name and Value must be separated with an equal sign and the Value must be followed by a semicolon. The wording and spelling of the Option Names and Values are identical to the text found in the operator panel. Spaces used in the operator panel option text are optional and are ignored. The option and value string case does not have to match the operator panel.

For some options, a menu identifier needs to be specified. An example is the Top Margin setting which occurs in both the All Input Trays and the Tray 1 Adjust sub- menus under the Margins menu. Setting this and similar options is done by specifying the sub-menu before the Option Name. A colon is used to separate the two. The sample sequences below show how the Top Margin in the Tray 1 Adjust sub-menu can be changed.

Margins: Tray 1 Adjust: Top Margin = 20;

Or

Tray 1 Adjust: Top Margin = 20;

The general syntax text string is:

Menu Name: Sub-Menu Name: Option Name = Value;

It is recommended to precede all Option Names with the full menu path. This minimizes confusion and increases compatibility with possible future IPDS options.

Some options use an extended syntax. This applies to the options in the MAP INPUT TRAYS and the MAP OUTPUT BIN menus. Each of the mapping options needs two values when configured. When two values are required, they are separated by a comma. Two valid samples are shown below.

Map Input Trays: Tray Mapping 1 = Tray1, 2;
