Chapter 6 Configuration - Log Path

Trailer String

Define an escape sequence to be sent to the printer after ea ch print job. For
example, you may want to send a sequence to add a formfeed so you d on't
have to manually press the formfeed button on the print er. You may also want
to tell the printer to reset itself in case you have set a header string which tells
the printer to do something special with the job. You can spe cify up to three
separate sequences per trailer string. The Ethernet Interface executes them
in order from top to bottom. If specifying fewer than four sequenc es, be sure
to start at the top leaving undefined fields at the bottom.
The most common sequences are listed on the form:
•PCL Reset - tells the printer to reset itself once the data com pletes
•End of Transmission (EOT) - tells the printer to force the end of the job
•Formfeed - tells the printer to do a formfeed at the end of the data.

Printer Configura tio n

Specify a printer configuration number to be loaded befor e processing the
print job. This ability to associate a printer configura tions to a logical printer
model allows you to define up to four unique and independent printe r
personalities in a single printer. Using this feature, you effectively have four
different printers in one.
To associate a printer configuration to the currently selected destination
queue, just select the desired printer configuration number from the drop
down list. Once a printer configuration have been assoc iated with a
destination queue, any print job sent to that destination queue name will
cause the printer to load the associated printer configurat ion before
processing the print job.
