Banner Options

The banner page can be printed using the following options.

Option Value	Alternate Value	Description
banner=last		Print the banner page after the job so that it will be
		physically on top of the job in the output tray.
banner=first	banner	Print the banner page before the job so that it will be
		physically under the job in the output tray.
nobanner	nb	Do not print a banner. The ability to specify the
		“nobanner” option can be disabled by the system
		administrator to force all jobs to print with a banner.

The default value for this option is that the banner page prints first.

Example: The command to printing the banner page after the job is “lp -d <queuename> -o banner=last <filename>”.

Banner Paper Source

The banner paper source can be specified using the following options.

Option Value	Alternate Value	Description
bauto-source		Select the auto paper tray selection.
bdrawer1	bupper	Select the 1st drawer.
	bcas1
bdrawer2	blower	Select the 2nd drawer.
	bcas2
bdrawer3	bpedupper	Select the 3rd drawer (optional).
	bcas3
bdrawer4	bpedlower	Select the 4th drawer (optional).
	bcas4
blcf	BLCF	Select the Large Capacity Feeder (optional). The Large
	btandem	Capacity Feeder (optional) is not available for some
		countries or regions.

If the banner paper source is not specified the PCL5e auto paper source command “<esc>&l7H” will be sent. The banner page source cannot be set to manual feed. The paper size always has priority over the paper source.

Example: The command to specify that the banner page paper source is the Large Capacity Feeder is “lp -d <queuename> -o blcf <filename>”.

Banner Media Type

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

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

The paper size always has priority over the media type and the paper source.

If this option is not specified the command will not be sent so the printer’s default value will be used to print the banner page.

Example: The command to specify that the banner page should be printed on Plain paper is “lp -d <queuename> -o bmtype=Plain <filename>”.
