Specifying The Device Option; Printer Language - Ricoh AP2600N User Manual

Specifying the Device Option

With the following options, you can print with specific printer function.
Limitation
❒ The optional character strings that the printer can recognize are a maximum
of 512 bytes.
❒ The number of available characters used as options are limited, depending on
their operating systems.
Note
❒ Multiple options must be partitioned with a comma (,). Do not use space.
❒ When the printing file contains the PCL, PJL, PostScript command to control
the option, that command takes priority.
❒ Enter the option using the lp or lpr command, when the shell script is imple-
mented. The option settings you made here have been configured as a default
setting. You must create the other printer if you want to change the option set-
tings of the printer. For more information about changing the configured op-
tion, see P.5 "Deleting the printer".
