Paper Source
Paper source selection is supported for both the PCL 5 emulation
and the PostScript Language by using the –u flag of the qprt
command.
PCL
–u 1 manual feed
–u 2 top tray
–u 3 bottom tray
By default the banner and trailer pages come from the top tray. To
change the default, change the values for the uH and/or uT attributes
respectively in the colon file to the value for the desired paper source
(s1–s3). Use the lsvirprt command.
Paper Size
Paper size selection is supported for the PCL 5 emulation by using
the –Q and –O flags of the qprt command. A value of 3 for the –O
flag indicates paper and a value of 4 indicates envelope. Envelopes
are not valid in tray 2.
Paper Sizes (–0 3)
Envelope Sizes (–0 4)
–Q 1 Letter 7 3/4 Monarch
–Q 2 Legal 9 (Com 9)
–Q 3 B5 paper 10 (Com 10)
–Q 4 A4 DL
–Q 5 Executive C5
–Q 6 A5 B5 Envelope
–Q 7 Other Envelope
Note: The printer file (optra_e.pcl) for PCL 5 defaults the paper
size to letter. To change the default size, change the values for
the s1–s3 attributes in the file. For example, to make A4 the
default size for all paper sources, change s1, s2, and s3 to 4. This
changes the top tray, bottom tray, and feeder tray sizes
respectively.
Paper Type
The Optra E printer supports paper types: rough, normal (default),
transparency, labels, and cardstock using the –y parameter of the
qprt command or the _y attribute in the colon file.
–y 1 Rough
–y 2 Normal (default)
–y 3 Transparency
–y 4 Labels
–y 5 Cardstock
Note: These values apply only to paper and not envelopes. The
only values supported for tray 2 are rough and normal.
