Media Type

The paper source can be selected using the following options to specify the media type.
Option Value Alternate Value
mtype=Plain
mtype=
Transparency
mtype=Thick1
mtype=Thick2
mtype=Thick3
In PostScript, Deferred Media Selection is always turned on so the paper size has priority over the media type and the

paper source.

In PCL5e, the paper size always has priority over the media type and the paper source.
If this option is not specified, the default value will be used.
Example: The command to specify Thick1 media type is "lp -d <queuename> -o mtype=Thick1 <filename>".

In PostScript, Deferred Media Selection is always turned on so the paper size has priority over the paper source. In
PCL5e, the paper size always has priority over the paper source.
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 specify the drawer 1 paper source is "lp -d <queuename> - o drawer1 <filename>".
Duplexing
The current duplex mode can be specified using the following options.
Option Value Alternate Value

It is not necessary to specify duplexing for Booklet Mode (sduplex). Setting duplexing separately can override the booklet
mode setting for duplexing.
