XES COMMAND LANGUAGE MODE

Setting job boundaries

There are two commands for starting a document:

·Print Job (E+P L), which is used to start a document that will have one font orientation (either portrait or landscape) per page.

·Print Job (Mixed Orientation) (E+Q L), which is used to start a document that will have both landscape and portrait font orientations on the same page.

The command for ending a document is the Reset command. The Reset command ends all types of jobs, returns the printer to its default settings, and tells the printer that any data following it is part of a new job.

For documents created with the printer commands, you need the

Print Job and Reset commands in order to:

·Separate print jobs. Print Job commands tell the printer that a new job has begun. If no Reset command (E+XL) is used, the printer processes your document as part of the job that preceded it, with the same parameters throughout.

·Request an XES Summary sheet (by having a comma follow the Print Job command).

·Notify the printer that a new job is being sent that has new parameters, such as fonts and margins, that are different from the defaults.

·Indicate whether or not changing to a different font orientation ends the page.

If you are processing more than one document and want to keep the same parameters for each, use Print Job at the beginning of each document, but do not use Reset at the end. This keeps all the parameters set with the other commands.

To start a new document with new parameters, enter Reset to clear all settings, then start over with Print Job or Print Job (Mixed Orientation) as the following table illustrates.
