These PCL fonts can be downloaded to the printer by the

Configuration and Resource Utility.

Additional notes There is no equivalent of the XES <ESC>+1fontname<CR><LF> functionality when printing IBM data streams. Access to fonts must be made by mapping IBM font calls to the new PCL fonts.

Printing a separator page between jobs

Summary How can I cause the interface to print a separator page between jobs?

Answer You can print a separator page between jobs in coax by using the Y100 function which sets the timeout on the coax line as well as defining an ASCII string which will be sent to the printer before each job.

Send the following FSL command to the printer:

&&??@@Y100,20,OD200C

&&??<SPACE>

This command causes the coax interface to send the PCL commands necessary to print a blank page in front of every job.

Additional notes Be aware that there is nothing in the coax protocol that indicates to the interface that a new job is being sent. Once the interface becomes active, it sees everything sent as 1 job. The first parameter of the Y100 command (20 in the example) is the timeout on the coax line. By making this value shorter, you will cut down on the chances of 2 jobs being placed back to back without a separator page. Care should be taken, however, not to make the timeout too short, as this may cause jobs to end in the middle of a page of data if you are running on a slow line, or if the printer is a long distance from the host. Some experimentation may be necessary in order to come up with the optimal timeout value for your particular site.

Sending data to multiple ports

Summary The printer utilizes multiple ports to receive data (eg. parallel and coax/twinax), and occasionally hangs.

Answer When a job is received from the coax or twinax interface, a short PostScript job is sent to the controller to lock the printer into PCL mode for the duration of the job. The interface then sends the print job. However, if the Communications Priority Scheme is set to Sequential, the controller looks for the next job on another interface (not the coax/twinax interface). If that job is not PCL or if the job is not terminated with an <Esc> E PCL command, the printer will remain locked to that port and hang.

They handle a wide range of paper formats, from letter-sized documents to larger legal-sized prints, and support various media types, including glossy and plain paper. This flexibility allows businesses to produce everything from basic documents to vibrant marketing materials without the need for multiple devices.

The Xerox 4219/MRP is noted for its compact design, making it suitable for office environments with limited space. It offers a robust printing speed of up to 19 pages per minute, ensuring fast document output. It incorporates advanced digital technology, ensuring that each print is sharp and clear, providing excellent image quality for both text and graphics.

In contrast, the Xerox 4220/MRP features enhanced printing speed, reaching up to 20 pages per minute. This model is ideal for teams that require higher volumes of prints on a daily basis. Both the 4219 and 4220 models come equipped with intuitive touch-screen controls, simplifying user interactions and minimizing training time.

The Xerox 4215/MRP stands out with its affordability and energy efficiency. This model is designed for budget-conscious businesses without compromising performance. It features automatic duplex printing, which reduces paper usage and cuts down operational costs. Its compact build and easy installation process make it a practical choice for any workspace.

The Xerox 4230/MRP, on the other hand, is designed for higher productivity needs, boasting a printing speed of up to 30 pages per minute. It incorporates advanced connectivity options, including wireless printing capabilities, mobile printing support, and integration with cloud services. This feature enables employees to print from various devices seamlessly, enhancing workflow efficiency.

All four models utilize Xerox’s proprietary imaging technology, ensuring exceptional image quality and consistent performance over time. They also come equipped with security features to protect sensitive information, such as password-protected printing and user authentication protocols.

In summary, the Xerox 4219/MRP, 4220/MRP, 4215/MRP, and 4230/MRP offer a range of features suitable for different business needs, from high-volume printing to cost-effective solutions. Their advanced technologies, user-friendly interfaces, and robust performance make them reliable choices for any modern office.
