xxxx fc sd do dd pq dx
Printers:
3812, 4214, 5219
Action:
Specifies parameters regarding the paper.
The
fc
parameter specifies the forms control. A value of
00h means no change to current setting; 01h specifies
paper; 02h specifies envelopes. For the 3812, the value
02h is not supported.
The
sd
parameter specifies the paper source drawer.
Valid values are 00h (no change), and from 01h to the
number of drawers installed in the printer.
The
do
parameter specifies the destination (output) tray
offset. A value of 00h means do not offset; any other
value means offset the tray. This parameter is supported
only by the 3812.
The
dd
parameter specifies the destination (output)
drawer. Valid values are 00h (no change), and from 01h
to the number of output drawers installed in the printer.
The 3812 jogs (offsets) the output tray if the value is
changed from the last setting.
The
pq
parameter specifies the print quality for
subsequent text. Valid values are 00h (no change), 01h
(data processing), 02h (near-letter quality) and 03h
(high-speed draft).
For the 5219, a value of 01h specifies ribbon-saver
mode.
For the 3812, a value of 01h allows Computer Output
Reduction, and values of 02h and 03h disallow COR. If
COR is disallowed, portrait mode is used instead.
The
dx
parameter specifies duplex mode. A value of 00h
specifies no change; 01h specifies simplex (one-sided)
printing; 02h specifies duplex (two-sided, side-binding)
printing; 03h specifies tumble (two-sided, top binding)
printing.
For the 3812, 4214 and 5219, the
dx
parameter is not
used.
This command is restricted to page boundaries.
