PostScript (PS) emulation 12

PostScript paper tray support

When the printer receives one of the operators listed in “Tray selected with tray operators” on page 12, it performs the actions listed in this section. This paper tray selection process ends when a suitable paper source is chosen and paper is fed from this tray.
The printer checks the value of manualfeed in statusdict and the ManualFeed page device parameter. If either one is true, then the printer sends a message to load the requested size in the manual feeder or multipurpose feeder.
The PageSize Policy is set to 0 by means of setpagedevice.
The printer checks the paper size loaded in the current active source to determine if it matches the requested size. If the sizes match, then the paper is fed from the active source.
Note: The current active tray is the last source that was selected from the printer control panel or by the printer language.
If the requested size and the size loaded in the active source do not match, then the sources are searched in the order defined by the Priority array in the InputAttributes dictionary in the pagedevice dictionary.
If the requested media size is not found by the previous search, then the following search order is used:
Tray 1
Tray 2
Tray 3
Multipurpose feeder
Tray 4
Tray 5
If the requested size cannot be located in any automatic source, then a configurationerror is issued and the job is flushed.
For printers that support automatic twosided printing (duplexing):
Automatic twosided printing is not supported for custom-size paper or for envelopes in the multipurpose feeder. Automatic twosided printing is supported from the multipurpose feeder for all other papers.
If the paper source is changed before the back side of a twosided page prints, then a blank back page prints, the paper source changes, and the information for the back side of the page is printed on the front side of a page sent from the new paper source.
When these operators are used, it is equivalent to executing the following PostScript emulation sequence:
<< /PageSize [x y]/ImagingBBox null /Policies << /PageSize 0>> >>
setpagedevice
where x and y are the PageSize in points.

PostScript envelope size support

The literal names in “Envelope sizes supported” on page 13 are also supported as operators in userdict. These operators change the image size but not the active paper source. Therefore, when these operators are used, part of the image may be clipped.
When these literal names are used as operators, it is equivalent to executing the following PostScript emulation sequence. The following example uses a 3.875 x 7.5inch envelope.

PostScript envelope tray support

The envelope tray the printer selected when it receives an envelopetray operator is listed in “Envelopetray operator selections”
on page 15.
Printer action when manualfeed is false
The printer sets the PageSize Policy to 0 if manualfeed in statusdict and the ManualFeed page device parameter are false.
The printer checks and compares source tray size settings between printer and print job data stream.
Envelope setting Printer action
Envelope size settings match The printer pulls the envelope.
Envelope size settings do not match
The printer searches sources in the order defined by the Priority array in the InputAttributes dictionary in the pagedevice dictionary.
If search cannot find the requested media size, then the following search order is used:
Envelope feeder
Multipurpose feeder
Requested size and type are not available from any automatic source
You are prompted to load the requested envelope size and type in the manual feed source.
If the size is still not available, then a configurationerror is issued, and the print job is flushed.
Printer action when manualfeed is true
The printer prompts you to load the requested size manually if manualfeed or ManualFeed is true. If no manual feed exists on the printer, then a rangecheck error message is issued.
These operators are equivalent to executing the following PostScript emulation sequence:
<</PageSize [x y] /ImagingBBox null /Policies<</PageSize 0>> >> setpagedevice
where x and y are the PageSize in points.
