input-tray-substitutions

This multi-valued, value-map attribute associates one input tray number with two substitute tray numbers: one tray number for jobs that print on a single side of the paper and another tray number for jobs that print on both sides of the paper.

ISPF field name

Input Tray Substitutions

Allowed values

One to four sets of values in the format: input_tray -> {simplex_tray duplex_tray}:

input_tray

An integer from 1–255 that identifies the tray specified for the job in the INTRAY JCL parameter, the input-tray-number job attribute, or the form definition PSF uses to print the job.

simplex_tray

An integer from 1–255 that identifies the tray PSF is to use for jobs printed on a single side of the paper.

duplex_tray

An integer from 1–255 that identifies the tray PSF is to use for jobs printed on both sides of the paper.

To determine the tray numbers for your printer, see the printer documentation.

Enclose the entire values in braces. For example:

input-tray-substitutions = { 1 ->{1 3} 2 -> {2 4} }

In this example:

• When the job submitter specifies tray 1, PSF uses tray 1 for jobs that print on a single side of the paper and tray 3 for jobs that print on both sides of the paper.
• When the job submitter specifies tray 2, PSF uses tray 2 for jobs that print on a single side of the paper and tray 4 for jobs that print on both sides of the paper.

Default value

PSF does not use substitute tray numbers.

Usage guidelines

Specify this attribute when the same side-sensitive or edge-sensitive paper is loaded in different trays in two different directions. That is, in one direction for printing on a single side of the paper and in another direction for printing on both sides of the paper.
