10.14 HP LaserJet IIID Printer
10.14.1 Job Remains in Starting State
The DCPS$queuename_NO_SYNC logical can be used to solve reported
problems printing to HP LaserJet IIID printers with HP-supplied PostScript
Level 2 cartridges. Those cartridges have a known problem where they corrupt
status messages they send to a host. This can cause jobs to get stuck in the
‘‘starting’’ state when DCPS tries to use its synchronization sequence. See
Section 3.4.3 for more information.
10.14.2 Incorrect Sheet Count on Duplex Jobs
The HP LaserJet IIID and several other HP LaserJet printers do not internally
count physical sheets but instead count pages imaged. Therefore the ‘‘Sheets
printed’’ data of the trailer page will reflect the number of images processed.
For example, a six-page print job with burst and trailer pages enabled and
/PARAMETERS=(SIDES=2)
specified will show ‘‘Sheets printed’’ as eight when
only five sheets are printed.
10.15 HP LaserJet IIISi Printer
10.15.1 Incorrect Sheet Count on Native PCL Jobs
The HP LaserJet IIISi printer does not keep track of the sheet count while
printing native PCL files. The sheet count reported at the end of the job, both
on the trailer page and to the OpenVMS accounting system, includes only those
sheets printed in PostScript mode, such as the job separation pages. There is
no known workaround for this problem.
10.15.2 Incorrect Sheet Count on Duplex Jobs
The HP LaserJet IIISi printer exhibits the same behavior with sheet count as
mentioned in Section 10.14.2.
