8 Printer Environment Settings

NOTE: If a different printer name is specified, the print language or mode specified on the touch screen of the machine is used.

NOTE: When setting print languages/modes from the same workstation to a single printer, it is recommended to set one kind of each. If two or more kinds of languages/ modes are set, the workstation may display the same job number for some queues (lpq).

NOTE: To print an ASCII-format PostScript file, specify PSASC for data processing with TBCP enabled.

NOTE: To print a binary-format PostScript file, specify PSBIN for data processing with TBCP disabled.

NOTE: When specifying PS, the machine functions as if PSBIN is specified.

NOTE: You cannot use -C option when specifying the printer name with the output parameter.

NOTE: For details about -C option, refer to -C Option on page 253.

NOTE: Lowercase characters can also be used for a printer name.

NOTE: Up to 64 characters can be used for a printer name.

NOTE: Output parameters in the print data take priority over the printer name.
