Print Resolution
The Optra E printer supports print resolution of 300 and 600 dpi
using the –q flag of the qprt command. The default is 300 dpi.
–q 300
–q 600
Pitch
Pitch selection is supported for the PCL 5 emulation by using the –p
flag for pitch and the –s flag for font name with the qprt command.
Pitch values between 1 and 100 characters per inch (cpi) in whole
integers are supported. The condensed print flag, –K, is not
supported.

Note: To format ASCII for other font styles, use the AIX enscript
utility or the qprt command with the –da, –s, and –p flags to a
PostScript queue. For postscript queues, –p stands for point size
and the valid list of fonts are located in /usr/lib/ps/fontmap. Valid
point sizes are any integer from 1 to 1008.
Also, only a pitch of 17 is supported for the lineprinter font style.
Number of
Copies for Each
Page
The –W flag allows the user to control how many copies of each
page is produced by the printer itself. For example, if a three–page
job is submitted with the –W flag of the –qprt command, then 2
copies of page one, followed by 2 copies of page two, followed by 2
copies of page three will be printed. The default value is 1, and the
maximum value is 999.
