8. DEVICE ATTENDANCE COMMANDS
8.1. Introduction
You can change display messages on the printer control panel by using PJL. The Operator can be
alerted by this feature to what specific actions should be taken. This chapter shows you three device
attendance commands.
RDYMSG
By using this command, you can change the message "00 READY" on the printer control panel into
whatever message you like. This command does not change the printer's online/offline state.
OPMSG
By using this command, the printer can display a message you specify on the printer switch panel LCD
and set the printer to off-line ( non-ready state for printing ).
STMSG
By using this command, the printer can display a message you specify on the printer control panel LCD
and the printer will go off-line. After the operator puts the printer back on-line by the on-line / off-line
key, the printer name is returned by the printer to the application.
