commands perform an end of document for all of the printer
emulations supported on your printer (PostScript, HP-GL, HP PCL,
and Lineprinter).
See your system administrator or applications development depart-
ment to have them identify the standard EOD command for your
organization, or to have them select a standard EOD command.
Setting the End Job Mode for the Serial and
Parallel Protocols
Your printer can be connected through the serial or parallel interface
to a stand-alone PC, to a PC print server, or to some other type of
print queuing system. This section provides a quick guide to the steps
needed to set the end job mode for each environment. The following
sections provide more detailed information for each step.
Stand-Alone PC
1
Set the end job mode from the printer's control panel.
2
Add the EOD command to your file.
»
Note: If using steps 1 and 2 is not feasible in your stand-alone PC
environment, you can alternatively use a program that either causes an
emulation timeout or that inserts an EOD command between each print
job. See your QMS vendor for more information on this type of program.
PC Print Server
1
Set the end job mode from the printer's control panel.
2
Create a job separator to append an EOD command and
send it between each print job.
Other Print Queuing Systems
If you use a print queuing system other than a PC print server and
you experience what appears to be an EOD command problem, you
may need to use another procedure, such as a print utility, an initial-
ization sequence, or a header page to add an EOD command. See
