Creating Setup Modules and Device
Control Libraries
7.1 What Is a Setup Module?
A setup module is a file containing instructions that modify the appearance of
a print job or redefine the instructions in the print job.
You can include a setup module in a print job with the PRINT command’s
/SETUP qualifier. The following example uses a setup module that specifies
600 dots-per-inch (DPI) resolution:
$ PRINT/QUEUE=LPS32$2SIDES/SETUP=RES_600X600 IMAGE.PS
You can also implicitly include setup modules in a print job through the use of
a form (see Chapter 8).
7.2 Locating Setup Modules
DECprint Supervisor ships with various setup modules, which are located in
the following device control library:
SYS$LIBRARY:DCPS$DEVCTL.TLB
To list the setup modules, use the following command:
$ LIBRARY/LIST SYS$LIBRARY:DCPS$DEVCTL.TLB
The list of setup modules displays, similar to the following:
