Text Length; Banner Page - Toshiba E-STUDIO287CS User Manual

If the top margin is set too high or too low, part of the text may
not appear due to the printer's unprintable region. The top
margin will be ignored if it is set to a value greater than the
printer's logical page length. Setting this value may affect the
number of lines specified using the page length option.
If this option is not specified, the command will not be sent so
the printer's default value will be used.
Example: The command to set the top margin to ten lines is "lp
-o tm=10 <filename>".
 Text Length
The text length can be specified using the following options.
Option Value Alternate Value
tl=value
If the text length is set too high, part of the text may not appear
due to the printer's unprintable area. The text length will be
ignored if it is set to a value greater than the printer's logical
page length minus the top margin. The text length is specified
in rows from the top margin. Setting this value may affect the
number of lines specified using the page length option.
If this option is not specified, the command will not be sent so
the printer's default value will be used.
Example: The command to set the text length to 40 lines is "lp -
o tl=40 <filename>".
 Banner Page
A banner page is automatically generated for each file in each
job. The banner page is always sent as a PCL5e job, including
the following items.
• Name of the user who performed printing
• Job ID number and workstation name from which the job
was sent
• Job title (This can be specified using the "-t" option. The
same title controlled by the "lp" command is normally
applied to each job.)
• Option specified when printing was performed
• Number of printed sheets
• Name of the printer and its IP address
• Date and time
Only one copy of the banner page is printed for each file, even
if a number of copies of the job are requested. The banner
page is sent to the equipment as a separate sub-job so that it is
never stapled to the document.
The banner page is printed with the following settings.
• Copies = 1.
• Stapling off.
• Orientation = portrait.
• Duplex off.
• Paper size as requested by the "-o" parameter or the
printer's default value.
• The paper source and the media type for the banner page
can be set to different values than the job's paper source
and media type.
• Auto paper source selection or the requested banner page
source or media type.
• Output bin as requested by the "-o" parameter or the printer
default value.
• 6 lines per inch
• Auto-wrap on.
Description
Set the length to value
lines.
- 77 -
• Automatic carriage-return when a line-feed is sent.
Note
• The banner page is designed to fit the paper bigger than
Statement / A5.
The banner page uses the default paper size if paper is set
to:
- Statement
- A5
- A6
- B5
- Postcard
• The default is that the banner page is printed before the job
so that it is in the correct stacking order.
• When the language is set to "raw" the banner is always
disabled.
• The paper source and the media type for the banner page
can be set to values different than the job's paper source
and media type. If a banner paper source is not specified
then the auto source command is sent. If a banner media
type is not specified, then no banner media type command
is sent, so the printer's default value will be used.
• If the file being printed specifies the paper destination or the
paper size internally, the banner page may printed to the
wrong output or on an incorrect paper size.
Banner Options
The banner page can be printed using the following options.
Option Value Alternate Value
banner=last
banner=first banner
nobanner nb
The default value for this option is that the banner page is
printed first.
Example: The command to printing the banner page after the
job is "lp -o banner=last <filename>".
