Printer, Plotter, and Spooler Subsystem Programming
To change the defaults, change s0 – s5 attributes for each valid input
value. Because manual feed, envelope feeder, and the multipurpose
tray support both paper and envelopes, to change the defaults, edit
s0, s4, or s5. For these three, the default for paper is the “else” part
(%e1), and the default for envelopes is the “then” part (%t3).
Notes:
1. Envelopes are only valid for manual feed, envelope feeder, or the
multipurpose tray.
2. Trays 1, 2, and 3 support only paper sizes.
3. The multipurpose tray (MPT) supports both paper and envelopes.
4. Tray 1 supports sizes –Q 1, 2, 4, and 7 (Letter, Legal, A4, and
B4).
5. Trays 2 and 3 support sizes –Q 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 9 (Letter, Legal, A4,
B4, A3, Ledger).
6. The multipurpose tray supports all sizes of paper and envelopes.
7. The other envelope size is supported only by the multipurpose
tray.
8. The printer and colon file defaults paper size to Letter for the US
and A4 for Europe, and envelope size to COM10 for the US and
DL for Europe.
9. Whenever an invalid value for the input source is selected, an
error will be reported.
10.If the selected size is not in the input source selected (wrong size
or empty), a search sequence is used to find the size requested.
See your printer documentation for more information.

supported.
