Automatic Tray Selection

The selection of paper in the 9045N printer follow certain rules in situations where the requested and loaded media do not match.
If you ask for a specific tray, which has according to the paper menu the requested media type assigned and tray linking is set to off, but there is no media loaded in that tray the job will not con­tinue until you load the tray with media. The printer will stop and advise that a certain type and size of paper needs to be put into the specified tray. If linking is on it will automatically go to another tray with the correct size and type.
If you request a specific type of media to be loaded from a specific tray and that tray does not have the required media type set in the media type loaded and tray linking is on, the printer will select the paper from another tray with the correctly loaded paper.
If tray linking is off you have two choices:
If you change the media type of the requested tray in the paper menu to the correct type and
press start it will feed from that tray. It will also assume that the correct media type is now loaded in the tray. The print speed may also be changed as required for that media type.
If you do not change the paper then it will feed from the default tray and assume the paper
type assigned to that default tray in the paper menu when you press the start key.

Special Settings
To overcome possible conflicts the best setting to use for tray selection within the driver is often Auto-Sense.

Paper Size

When making selections for a print job, Auto-Sense will not work with the following paper sizes:
• Statement
•COM10
• Monarch
•A6
•C5
•DL
To use these sizes you must use the operator panel on the printer to turn off Auto-Sense for the tray and set the intended paper size.
Refer to:
• “Settings on the Control Panel” (P. 13)

Setting Custom Paper Sizes

To print on custom size paper loaded in trays 1 to 4, you must set the paper size on the control panel. You may also need to set it on the printer driver, depending on the paper size. This section explains how to set the size on the control panel.
Important
• When setting the paper size on the printer driver and control panel, be sure to specify the same size as the actual paper used. Setting the wrong size for printing will cause machine failure. This is especially true if you configure a bigger size when using a narrow width paper.
NOTE: To return to standard paper size settings, select [Auto] in step 6 below. This printer will
automatically detect the size and orientation of the loaded paper.
1. Press the <MENU> button to display the Menu screen.
2. Press the < > or < > button until [Paper Menu] is displayed, then press the < > button.
3. Press the < > or < > button until [Custom Size Unit] is displayed, then press the < > but-

Setting Paper Types

Prior settings on the control panel are required for the types of paper loaded in trays 1 to 4. For accurate image quality processing, refer to the following table and set the paper types on the con­trol panel.
Important:
• Paper type settings must match those of the actual paper loaded in the trays. Otherwise, image quality cannot be processed accurately. Toner may not fuse properly on the paper, resulting in dirty and poor quality printouts.
• Changes in paper type settings on the printer driver are not reflected in this printer.
Refer to:
• Paper and paper types that can be loaded:

Using the FLASH or Hard Disk Option as a PostScript Device

In order to allow PostScript programs to access the FLASH and/or hard disk options, a full imple­mentation of a PostScript storage device is provided. This section discusses an overview of the PostScript operators and parameter sets that are included in the support.
For detailed information on using the operators/parameter sets, please refer to the following publi­cations:
PostScript Language Reference Manual
Adobe PostScript 3 Version 3010 Product Supplement
Device Names and Priority
The device names assigned to the FLASH and hard disk options are as follows:
%flash% device name for the FLASH
%disk0% device name for the hard disk
If both devices are installed, both devices can be referenced uniquely by name. If no device name is specified in the PostScript operation, the SearchOrder parameter in the device parameter set estab­lishes the priority for file operations. When both devices are installed, the SearchOrder value for the hard disk is set to 1, while the SearchOrder value for the FLASH is set to 2. This gives priority to the hard disk.

PostScript Operators

All of the standard file-object related operators (file, read, write, etc.) are supported. In addition, following is a list of device-related PostScript Compatibility operators that are supported for use with the FLASH (%flash%) or hard disk (%disk0%) options:
devdismount
devforall
devformat
devmount
devstatus
diskonline
diskstatus

Device Parameter Sets

When installed, a device parameter set will be supported for either or both FLASH and hard disk options. The parameter sets can be referenced using the device names%flash% or%disk0%. Each parameter set will include the following parameters:
LogicalSize
Writeable
BlockSize
Searchable
SearchOrder

Warmstart.ps and Sys/Start Files

When either or both the FLASH or hard disk options are installed, there are two features which provide support for automatic execution of a PostScript program during power-on initialization.
The first feature is the warmstart.ps file. Each time the printer is powered on, either or both optional storage devices will be checked for a file named warmstart.ps. If this file is found, it will be read and parsed by the PostScript interpreter. It is up to the PostScript programmer to create the content of this file and get the file onto the storage device using the PostScript device and file operators.
The second feature is the Sys/Start file. If either or both of the optional storage devices are installed, an additional parameter will be supported in the System Parameter set. This parameter is an integer parameter called StartupMode and is set to 1 by default.
NOTE: This parameter can be read or written using the dosysstart and setdosysstart operators.
Each time the printer is powered on, if the StartupMode parameter is set to 1, either or both the optional storage devices will be searched for a file called Sys/Start, a file named Start in a path called Sys. If this file is found, it will be read and parsed by the PostScript interpreter. Again, it is up to the PostScript programmer to create the content of this file and get the file onto the storage device using the PostScript device and file operators.

Using the Power-On Files Feature

Power-on Files Defined

If a FLASH Card or hard disk drive is installed in your printer, your printer has the capability of storing additional power-on files which can be read and interpreted at power-on. Power-on files are processed at power-on initialization only and not at the start of every print.
Power-on files can contain either PCL or PostScript language content. Examples of power-on files include soft fonts, and macro/overlay definitions. The FLASH Card can store a minimum of approximately 2MB of file storage, the hard disk drive storage depends on the size of the drive that is installed in your printer.
Optional operator panel menu selections become available when either of these options are installed and power-on files are detected.

Collating, Saved Jobs, and Job Accounting

Collating, Saved Jobs, and Job Accounting
The features discussed in this section are designed to work with the Hard Disk Option. If no Hard Disk Option is installed, these features will utilize the User Flash Option. However, the Flash memory may not be large enough to use with some jobs. In particular it is recommended for colla­tion that a hard drive is installed. If both the Hard Disk Option and a User Flash are installed, these features will default to the Hard Disk Option.
There are two new features available using the Hard Disk or User Flash Option; Collating and Saved Jobs. The drivers that support these new features are as follows:
PCL – Windows 2000 and Windows XP
Microsoft Postscript driver – Windows 2000 and Windows XP

Collating Feature

When this feature is enabled, multiple copies of the entire document (all pages e.g. 1-3, 1-3, 1-3) will be printed in sequential order rather than multiple copies of each individual page (111, 222,
333).
You access the collating feature through the drivers that support this feature. Before these features can be used, the hard drive option has to be enabled in driver Device Settings. To access the Collat­ing feature on your desktop, go to the Start menu, left click on Settings, left click on Printers, and then click on your printer driver icon, right click and follow the menu to the Properties menu.
Use the following procedure to enable collating.
1. Click on the Device Settings button. Scroll down and make sure a Hard Disk option or
User Flash is installed. Then click the OK button. A Hard Disk must be installed to use the Collating Feature.
2. Press the Printing Properties button printer icon.
3. Click on the Printing Preferences button.
4. Click on the Paper Quality button and then the Advanced button.
5. Click on the Copy Count button to enter the number of copies and make sure the Collate
button is checked.
6. Click to OK button and your printer driver is set to collate the number of copies specified.

Saved Jobs Feature

You can create saved jobs using the drivers that support this feature. The drivers that support this feature are as follows:
PCL – Windows 2000 and Windows XP
Microsoft PostScript – Windows 2000 and Windows XP
There are three job types available, Normal, Saved, and Private. The descriptions of the job types are as follows:

Normal

A normal print job. No print job data is saved.

Saved

The print job data is saved on the Hard Disk or User Flash Option. The job will be saved in the “Job Library” folder. A sub-folder in the Job Library folder will be created, if necessary, for the user, as specified by the user name. The print job will be stored in a file in this folder with a name created by the user in the job name field of the printer driver.
45 PPM Laser Printer User Guide 3-13
Saved Jobs Feature

Private

The print job data is saved on the Hard Disk or User Flash Option. The job will be saved in the “Job Library” folder. A sub-folder will be created, or the by the user as specified by user name. The print job will be stored in a file in this folder, with a name specified by user in the job name field of the printer driver. “Private” print job files are secured by having an associated PIN which is entered in the PIN field of the driver by the user. Any access to this file will require the PIN to be entered.
To access the Saved Jobs on your desktop, go to the Start menu, left click on Settings, left click on Printers, and then click on your printer driver icon, right click and follow the menu to the Proper­ties menu.
1. You are now in the Printing Properties menu, click on the Printing Preference button.
2. Click on the Paper Quality button and then the Advanced button.
3. Now scroll down to the Job Type Section of the menu.
4. When you click on Job Type, three job types are available. Normal, Saved, and Private.
5. If you want to Save your print job, enter a name you want to save the job as and it will be
saved under User ID folder listed. You can change the User ID in this menu also.
6. If you want to make your job Private, you can enter a number in the PIN menu. You will
only be able to print this document if you know the PIN number.

Custom Page size and Microsoft Word, Word 2000, Word 2003

Custom Page size and Microsoft Word, Word 2000, Word 2003
When you specify a PostScript custom page size in the Paper Size box in the advanced printer properties for a supported printer:
The custom size setting appears to be ignored if you have configured Microsoft Word to use
the PostScript Custom Page Size setting.
Word defaults to the default size of 8.5 by 11 inches and is limited to a maximum length of 22
inches.

Resolution

If you want to use PostScript custom page sizes that are supported by a printer, the only way to make them work correctly in Word is to add custom forms to Windows and then to choose those form names in Word. By using this method, the PostScript Page Size setting in Word is ignored, and the newly added forms are used instead.
Create a custom form for printing to a non-standard paper size in Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, and Windows XP.
To create a custom form, follow these steps:
Navigate to CONTROL PANEL, double click PRINTERS.
On the FILE menu, click SERVER PROPERTIES.
On the FORMS tab, select the CREATE A NEW FORM check box.
Enter the settings for the new form.
NOTE: When you set up a custom form, the margins cannot go beyond the confines of the
specifications for the installed printer driver. Printable regions must be adhered to with regard to margin limits for the printer and driver in use.
Click SAVE FORM or OK
To use the new form as the default form, follow these steps:
WINDOWS NT
In CONTROL PANEL, double-click PRINTERS.
Right-click the printer you want to select, and then click DOCUMENT DEFAULTS.
In the PAPER S I ZE box, click the new form.
Click OK.
WINDOWS 2000 AND XP
In CONTROL PANEL, double-click PRINTERS.
Right-click the printer you want to select and then click PROPERTIES.
On the GENERAL tab, click PREFERENCES.
On the PAPER Q UA LITY tab, click ADVANCED, and then in the PAPER S IZE drop
down menu, select the custom form size.
Click OK.

To use the new form from a program, follow these steps:
In the program, click PRINT.
In the PRINT dialog box, click PROPERTIES.
In the PAPER S I ZE box, click the new form.
Click OK.
Click OK to print.
NOTE: New forms are stored on the computer where they are created. When you create a new
form for use with a shared printer, create the form on the print server.
NOTE: Occasionally on a Windows 2000 and XP computer, the newly created form will not appear
in the drop down list under paper size. If you encounter this, you may need to select an existing form under server properties, modify the settings, check box to create a new form, change the form name and save the form. Once you save the form, it should appear in the paper size drop down box.

About 200,000 pages can be printed for a fuser unit, a transfer roll cartridge and a feed roll. The printer will display the warning message "Maintenance Reqd press start" when this 200,000 page limit is reached. If you press start you will be able to continue printing. However, you will need to order the maintenance kit and replace these parts soon after. After installing the main­tenance kit, you should go to the "System Menu" and select "Reset Maint Reqd" to reset the counter and clear the warning message.
