4 PRINTING FROM UNIX/Linux

‰Media Type

The paper source can be selected using the following options to specify the media type.

Option Value	Alternate Value	Description
mtype=Plain		The paper source that contains Plain paper is
		requested.
mtype=		The paper source that contains Transparency Slides is
Transparency		requested.
mtype=Thick1		The paper source that contains Thick1 paper is
		requested.
mtype=Thick2		The paper source that contains Thick2 paper is
		requested.
mtype=Thick3		The paper source that contains Thick3 paper is
		requested.

In PostScript, Deferred Media Selection is always turned on so the paper size has priority over the media type and the paper source.

In PCL5e, the paper size always has priority over the media type and the paper source. If this option is not specified, the default value will be used.

Example: The command to specify Thick1 media type is “lp -d <queuename> -o mtype=Thick1 <filename>”.

‰Paper Source

The paper source can be selected using the following options.

Option Value	Alternate Value	Description
auto-source		Select auto paper tray selection.
manual		Select Bypass Tray.
drawer1	upper	Select the 1st drawer.
	cas1
drawer2	lower	Select the 2nd drawer.
	cas2
drawer3	pedupper	Select the 3rd drawer (optional).
	cas3
drawer4	pedlower	Select the 4th drawer (optional).
	cas4
lcf	tandem	Select the Large Capacity Feeder (optional). The Large
		Capacity Feeder (optional) is not available for some
		countries or regions.

In PostScript, Deferred Media Selection is always turned on so the paper size has priority over the paper source. In PCL5e, the paper size always has priority over the paper source.

If this option is not specified the command will not be sent so the printer’s default value will be used. Example: The command to specify the drawer 1 paper source is “lp -d <queuename> - o drawer1 <filename>”.

‰Duplexing

The current duplex mode can be specified using the following options.

Option Value	Alternate Value	Description
simplex		Turn duplexing off.
duplex	lduplex	Turn duplexing on with long edge binding.
	duplex_long
	duplex=long
	hduplex
sduplex	duplex_short	Turn duplexing on with short edge binding.
	duplex=short
	vduplex

If this option is not specified, the default value “simplex” will be used.

It is not necessary to specify duplexing for Booklet Mode (sduplex). Setting duplexing separately can override the booklet mode setting for duplexing.

Example: The command to specify long edge duplexing is “lp -d <queuename> -o duplex <filename>”.
