6.6. Set command

The SET command enables you to change the value of PJL Current Environment variables during a PJL

job, or until a PJL reset condition resets the default values.

Use this command to make a job-specific environment.

Syntax:

@PJL SET [LPARM :

personality

] variable =

value

[<CR>]<LF>

• LPARM : Personality

This optional parameter is used to set personality(emulation) -specific environment variables.

• variable = value

This parameter sets one of the environment variables to the specified value.

For example, @ PJL SET RESOLUTION = 300 command sets the current resolution to 300 dpi.

For a list of variables and values, see the following table.

• Use the @PJL INFO VARIABLES to obtain valid variables and the range of values for each

variable. This command can request this information directly from the printer.

Parameters:

• The printer control panel setting values and the feature settings stored in NV-RAM are not affected

by the values modified with the SET command.

• The setting values selected with the SET command are valid until the next PJL reset condition

occurs.

• If the SET command is used in a job, use the RESET command after the job to reset the printer to

User default settings.

Examples:

@PJL COMMENT Setting PCL job <CR><LF>

@PJL COMMENT to desired state <CR><LF>

@PJL SET RET = DARK <CR><LF>
