5.1.8.1.1 ENGINELANG1/ENGINELANG2
Some marking engines such as the Xerox 8830 support menu structures and other user messages on
the printer's front panel in addition to those provided by the controller for the print engine. These two
parameters store the primary and secondary languages that the marking engine is capable of

will move to an ERROR state, even though the print operation has not yet completed.
The lINK DOWN state only applies to remote printers like the 6030 and 6050 where the AccXES
Controller is acting like a Print Server.
5.1.8.1.3 ENGINEMAXPLOTLENGTH
The maximum plot length that is supported by the marking engine is stored in this variable. Note that
some of the marking engines supported by AccXES report this value at run-time based upon the IOT
configuration.
5.1.8.1.4 FINISHERSTATE
The state of the finisher is stored in this variable. It takes on one of the following values: {READY,
ERROR, BYPASS}. The ERROR state indicates some condition that should be cleared before folding
operations can proceed. The BYPASS state indicates that ...
