Specifying print format parameters

OUTPUT TMODE

Specifies a maximum paper width in order to improve throughput efficiency when mixed paper sizes are used.

Refer to “Paper sizing and print speed” in your printer operator guide for an explanation of the relationship between paper widths and throughput speed.

Syntax OUTPUT TMODE = {width (width [,widthunit])}

Definition

 

 

 

 

width

The process direction measurement that will be used to determine the pitch

 

mode.

 

• For normal (long-edge) feeding, this is normally a measure of the short

 

 

edge of the widest paper being used in the report.

 

• For short-edge feeding (SEF) this measures the long edge of the sheets.

 

Acceptable values range from the system minimum to the system maximum

 

(usually specified at system installation).

 

 

widthunit

Defines the unit of measurement for the default pitch mode. Choices are:

 

IN

 

CM

 

DOTS

 

XDOTS.

 

IN (inches) is the default widthunit.

OUTPUT TMODE parameter: points to note

Based on the specified paper size (expressed in inches)

This feature is not supported for the Nuvera MX systems.

Width values can range from 7 inches or 178 mm to 17 inches or 432 mm.

In order to process 7 by 10 inch and B5 papers, the printer must be configured with the 7 by 10 inch throughput kit (a hardware option).
