Media Size Priority
This parameter is available only if the IPDS feature is installed. It affects the use of
the XOH Set Media Size (SMS) order. This order may be used in the IPDS data
stream to set the page size. The Media Size Priority setting specifies whether
XOH-SMS orders take precedence over the operator panel settings for maximum
print position (MPP) and maximum page length (MPL).
The following values will be displayed in the menu:
Standard
The smaller page size values have priority. The page size will be the
intersection (smaller values) of the operator panel settings and the
XOH-SMS X and Y values.
