If this option is not specified, the default value of “nopunch” will be used.
This function is not available for all paper sizes and the users should refer to the copier
manual for a list of compatible paper sizes. In particular, A5, A6 and statement paper
sizes will not work with this function.
Example: The command to hole punch the long edge feed portrait page is
“lp –o punch=1 filename”.
— Media Type
The paper source can also be selected using the media type using the following option.
In PostScript Deferred Media Selection is always turned on so the paper size has prior-
ity 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 –o mtype=Thick1 filename”.

punch=1 Hole punch long edge without rotation.
