Banner Page
Tells the Ethernet Interface to produce a banner page with each
print job. The type of banner page data can be text. You can also
specify whether the banner page should come at the front or the
end of a print job.
Filter
Specify whether the Ethernet Interface is to add carriage returns to
print jobs passing through that contain solitary linefeeds. This is
common with Unix text jobs resulting in stair-stepped output.
Header String
Define an escape sequence to be sent to the printer before each
print job. For example, you may want to send a sequence to print
the job in landscape mode. You can specify up to four separate
sequences per header string. The Ethernet Interface will execute
them in order from top to bottom. If specifying fewer than four
sequences, be sure to start at the top leaving undefined fields at the
bottom.
Trailer String
Define an escape sequence to be sent to the printer after each print
job. For example, you may want to send a sequence to add a
formfeed so you don't have to manually press the formfeed button
on the printer. You may also want to tell the printer to reset itself in
case you have set a header string which tells the printer to do
something special with the job. You can specify up to three
separate sequences per trailer string. The Ethernet Interface
executes them in order from top to bottom. If specifying fewer than
four sequences, be sure to start at the top leaving undefined fields
at the bottom.
The most common sequence is listed on the form:
•
Formfeed - tells the printer to do a formfeed at the end of the
data. See page -190.
