LaserWriter 16/600 PS Software

58 Interpreter Parameters

Fax Device Parameters 2

The %Fax% device is used to control the default fax operating parameters of the

LaserWriter 16/600 PS printer. The %Fax% device parameters are described in Table 2-20.

PageCount integer 0 Keeps count of all pages fed by the printer

engine. The count includes all pages success-

fully printed as well as pages that were jammed

or spoiled. You can get the value by querying

the engine.

TimeToStandby integer 60 If the printer is not actually in use, the engine

goes into standby mode after the number of

minutes speciﬁed by this parameter. This means

the engine does not keep the fuser hot, and the

next time the controller sends a feed or prefeed

command, the engine starts to warm up.

This value persists across power cycles

and restarts.

Type name /Parameters This constant always returns a value of

/Parameters.

This value is a read-only constant.

caption appears on the printed

fax pages.
