Getting Started

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.

Comment Commands

To process all PJL COMMENT commands and DSC, enclose them with XRXBegin and XRXEnd commands.
Example for a PCL or ASCII print job:
@PJL COMMENT XRXbegin
@PJL COMMENT OID_ATT_START_SHEET OID_VAL_JOB_SHEET_NONE;
@PJL COMMENT XRXend
Example PS print job:
%%XRXbegin
%%OID_ATT_START_SHEET OID_VAL_JOB_SHEET_NONE;
%%XRXend
The first parameter of the command is 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.
The comment commands are specific to the ColorQube 57xx Series.
