Accessing Extended Features

Overview

This document describes how to access the extended features of the products listed in environments for which Xerox does not make a custom driver.

Note: Some of the commands and syntax used in this document requires familiarity with either PostScript (PS) or Printer Command Language (PCL).

This document provides the Printer Description Language (PDL) commands and syntax for each feature. The following tables are also included:

features supported by the WorkCentre platform.

commands to use in a PCL print job

commands to use in a PS print job

This document is not intended as a PS or PCL reference manual, but a guide for using the extended features in PS, PCL or ASCII print jobs.

Using this Guide

1.Refer to the Feature List for the feature you wish to implement. Select the page number to jump to that page.

2.Follow the syntax listed for the command you selected. Read the “Dependencies/Caveats” section. You can access features using several methods:

PCL or PS commands

PJL SET commands

Xerox specific COMMENT command.

Feature Listing

PCL and ASCII print jobs can use PJL commands or PCL commands to access the attributes of the device. If there is more than one method listed to access a specific feature, determine the best method for your application and use that method.

PostScript print jobs can use Document Structuring Commands (DSC) or PS commands. If there is more than one method listed to access a specific feature, determine the best method for your application and use that method.

For this document, both PJL COMMENT and DSC are referred to as Comment commands.

Getting Started

Comment Commands

To process all PJL COMMENT commands and DSC, enclose them with XRXBegin and XRXEnd commands. The following example shows a PCL or ASCII print job:

@PJL COMMENT XRXbegin

@PJL COMMENT OID_ATT_START_SHEET OID_VAL_JOB_SHEET_NONE;

@PJL COMMENT XRXend

This example shows a PS print job:

%%XRXbegin

%%OID_ATT_START_SHEET OID_VAL_JOB_SHEET_NONE; %%XRXend

The parameters of the command are an attribute followed by a value.

Comment commands must end with a semicolon except for the XRXbegin and XRXend commands.

A comment command not enclosed by XRXbegin and XRXend is NOT a Xerox specific command and is treated as a real comment with no functional attachment to its contents.

PJL SET Commands

PJL SET commands are available for some features. If you choose to use these commands, do not enclose them with the XRXBegin and XRXEnd commands.

PJL SET commands do not require a semicolon at the end of the command line.

PCL Commands

PCL commands are available for some features. If you choose to use these commands do not enclose them with the XRXBegin and XRXEnd commands. Refer to a PCL reference manual for more specific information regarding PCL commands.

PS Commands

PS commands are for some features. If you choose to use these commands, do not enclose them with the XRXBegin and XRXEnd commands. Refer to a PS reference manual for more specific information regarding PS commands.
