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.
The name of the user that submitted the print job
The job ID number and from which workstation it was submitted
The title of the job
This title can be specified using the "-t" option. The same title is used for every file within a job. The default title is
controlled by the "lp" command.
The name of the printer or its IP address
The date and time when the job was printed according to the print server
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
Hole punching 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
Automatic carriage-return when a line-feed is sent
The banner page is designed to fit paper bigger than Statement / A5.
The banner page uses the default paper size if paper is set to:
- Statement
- A5
- A6
- B5
- Postcard
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 different values 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 print to the
wrong output or on an incorrect paper size.
Hole punching cannot be applied to banner pages.
