Appendix A Programming Guide
A-1 Support of Printer Specific Features and Functions
The Fanfold Laser Printer provides programming support of Printer Specific
Features and Functions. These Functions are implemented with special Printer
Job Language commands. The following hints show in combination with
application examples how to use and program these functions:

A-1.1 Profiles

The printer can store up to 50 separate printer configuration settings called
Profiles. One profile should be used for one specific application. This
application may require a special setting for the paper format, the paper path,
fuser temperature, etc.
In an system environment where the application can not use a driver to select
the application specific parameters a profile can be selected by means of a
specific PJL command which has to be sent to the printer before sending the
print data.
Example:
ESC%-12345X@PJL DEFAULT PROFILE = 5
ESC%-12345X

A-1.2 Paper Size Select

The printer supports paper format A4, Letter and CUSTOM.
With paper format CUSTOM the page size can be set by PJL commands.
These PJL commands have to be sent to the printer before sending the print
data.
In the following example (with PJL SET) the paper format selection is only valid
for one PCL application file. After a power off or PJL reset the USER DEFAULT
environment variables are valid:
ESC%-12345X@PJL SET PAPER = CUSTOM
@PJL SET PAGELENGTH = 11 1/3
@PJL SET IMAGEWIDTH = 7.15
@PJL ENTER LANGUAGE = PCL
ESCE......PCL application file.....ESCE
