Interpreter Parameters

The semantics for interpreter parameters appear in the Reference Manual. For more recent parameters and their semantics, see the Supplement.

User Parameters

User parameters can be altered, within reasonable limits, by any PostScript language program without requiring a password. The user parameters establish temporary policies on matters such as whether to insert new items into caches.

The setuserparams and currentuserparams operators are used to set and get the current values of the user parameters. The initial value of user parameters at the time the printer is turned on for the first time is product dependent. Unless otherwise specified, all user parameters are subject to save and restore.

Listed below are the user parameters present in the printer.
