Product specific information
| Item | Descriptor |
|---|---|
| Paper Source | Paper source selection is supported for both the enhanced
PCL (R) 5 emulation and the PostScript Level 2 emulation by using
the -u flag of the qprt command.
There are several optional input sources. The input source number
is the same for both PCL and PostScript:
By default the banner and trailer pages come from the top tray. To change the default, change the values for the uH and/or uT attributes, respectively, in the colon file to the value for the desired paper source (s0-S5). Use the lsvirprt command. |
| Paper Size | Paper size selection is supported by using either one or both
of the qprt command flags, -O and -Q.
The -O flag controls paper versus envelopes. A value
of 3 indicates a paper size and 4 an envelope size. Envelopes are
only valid for manual feed, feeder, or feeder 2. The default for -O is
3 or paper. The default for -Q is 1 or Letter for
paper sizes and Com 10 for envelope sizes.
|
| Paper Type | The Optra printer supports paper types: rough, normal (default),
transparency, labels, and cardstock using the -y parameter
of the qprt command or the _y attribute
in the colon file.
|
| Print Resolution | The Optra plus printer supports print resolution of 300, 600,
and 1200 dpi using the -q flag of the qprt command.
The default is 600 dpi.
|
| Pitch | Pitch selection is supported for the PCL 5 emulation by using
the -p flag for pitch and the -s flag
for font name with the qprt command. Pitch values
between 1 and 100 characters per inch (cpi) in whole integers are
supported. The condensed print flag, -K, is not supported.
Note: To format ASCII for other font styles, use the
base operating system enscript utility or the qprt command
with the -da, -s, and -p flags
to a PostScript queue. For postscript queues, -p stands
for point size and the valid list of fonts are located in /usr/lib/ps/fontmap.
Valid point sizes are any integer from 1 to 1008. Also, only a pitch
of 17 is supported for the lineprinter font style.
|
| Duplex Mode | The optional duplex feature is supported by the -Y flag
of the qprt command.
