8-2 Device Attendance Commands
The RDYMSG command replaces the control panel's
"ready" message with the specified message. Use the
RDYMSG command to modify the displayed message while
keeping the printer online.
@PJL RDYMSG DISPLAY = " message " [<CR>]<LF>
Parameter
DISPLAY = "message" Roman-8 characters 33
DISPLAY = "message" — The variable message can be
any combination of printable characters (except
quotation marks, character 34) and spaces, with a limit
of 1 line of 16 characters (see "Comments" below). The
message variable is a string and must be enclosed in
double quotes as shown in the command syntax.
Since the RDYMSG command leaves the printer online, it
can be used to display the name of the person printing the
current job, or other pertinent information, while a job is
printing. It also can be used in network environments to
display the name of the printer.
The command @PJL RDYMSG DISPLAY = "" (or
performing a Menu Reset—"09 Menu Reset") returns the
display to the normal ready message.
Note
This command replaces the lowest priority 00 READY
message. If any higher priority message is displayed (for
example, toner low), the new ready message does not
appear until these outstanding conditions are cleared.
For HP LaserJet 4PJ, 4V, 4MV, 5Si, 5SiMx, and 5Si Mopier
printers, if the LANG variable is set to Japanese, the
message is displayed using the JIS X0201-76 character set.
For the LaserJet 4000 printer, if LANG is set to POLISH,
