Description

This command deﬁnes the paper tray failover rules for the printer. A

composite tray may be deﬁned by the DECSITF command, across which

paper tray failover may occur. When a paper tray that is part of a composite

tray becomes empty, the printer will failover to the next tray in the composite

tray deﬁnition, instead of reporting a ‘‘paper out’’ error condition.

Selective parameters for DECSITF are as follows:

Ps1 Action

0 Disable all composite input trays

1 Deﬁne composite tray 1

Subsequent parameters identify the trays that comprise the composite tray

speciﬁed by Ps1. The value of these parameters is equal to the input tray

selection parameter value for the Automatic Sheet Feeder Control (DECASFC)

command.

Ps2–

Psn Action

n Designates the tray as a member of a composite tray.

The number of composite trays and the speciﬁc paper trays that may be part

of a composite tray are device-dependent settings. The trays comprising a

composite tray must all have the same paper size. This is determined at the

time of failover, not when the command is received.
