Paper Size Paper size selection is supported by using the qprt command flags, –O
and –Q. The –O flag controls paper versus envelope. A –O value of 3
indicates a paper size and 4 an envelope size. The values 1 and 2 were
skipped for backward compatibility. The first five paper sizes are also
numbered for backward compatibility. Whenever an invalid value for the
input source is selected, it will be ignored.
Note: Envelopes available from Manual and Tray 1
The default for –O is 3 or paper. The default for –Q is 1 or Letter for
paper sizes and Monarch for envelope sizes.

Note: The printer file (lexOptraC45.pcl) for PCL 5 defaults the paper
size to letter. To change the default size, change the values for the
s0–s3 attributes in the file respectively for the _u (paper source)
attributes. For example, to make legal the default size for tray 2 change
the s2 attribute value to 2.
Note: For PCL queues, if the selected size is not in the selected input
source, a search sequence will be used to find the size requested. If
the size is found that source will be used. For PostScript queues, if the
selected size is not in the selected input source, the printer will prompt
the user to load the source with the appropriate size. This may result in
an unexpected paper source being used or an operator panel message
that may not make sense at first. See the manual to determine
appropriate responses.
