Print Images Rotation - Ricoh M0A0 Service Manual

4.Appendices: Software Configuration
This affects the PDL switching criteria (triggers) used by the printer system.
BitSW 5-3=0 (default):
"%%" is not used as a printer system PS trigger. "%%" will not call the PS interpreter.
BitSW 5-3=1:
"%%" is used as a printer system PS trigger.
The reason that "%%" is not included as a trigger by default, is that a string of text in the body of the job such as the
below, could result in a false positive. This would trigger a switch and result garbled output.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
However some customers prefer that "%%" be included as a switching criteria. BitSW5-3=1 should be used in such a
case.

A side effect of BitSW5-3=1 is that "userdict" will no longer be used as a PS trigger.
Bit Switch 9-0
These determine whether Auto PDL Detection for print jobs transmitted via USB/parallel will wait 10 seconds to make
sure the first 2KB of the job has been sent.
The Printer system portion of the Auto PDL Detection function is only performed on the first 2KB of a job and can wait up
to 10 seconds for that first 2KB to arrive. As the printer is unable to detect the end of jobs submitted over a USB/Parallel
connection, it might be preferable to not wait 10 seconds if jobs of less than 2KB are going to be printed.
Enabling/disabling this waiting time is the purpose of BitSw 9-0.
BitSw 9-0=0 (default):
The printer system will not wait 10 seconds for the first 2KB of data to arrive.
BitSw 9-0=1:
The printer system will wait up to 10 seconds for the first 2KB of data to arrive.

Printer Bit Switch description
Bit Switch 5-6
This change the way an MFP/LP rotates PCL, PS, PDF, or RPCS print images.
BitSW 5-6=0 (default):
A uniform binding edge (short or long edge) will be applied to every page of every job. Pages will always be rotated
as if they were to be bound on that edge.
BitSW 5-6=1:
A uniform binding edge (short or long edge) will only be applied if the job is stapled, punched, or Z-folded. Otherwise,
the bound edge might differ from page to page.
Example:
A 3-page job. Page 1 has the PCL simplex command. Page 2 and 3 have the PCL duplex long-edge bind commands.
No finishing options (staple, punch, z-fold) are used.
