F If you specify incorrect job parameters or your job gets a PostScript C error, your job may never finish because the LN15 printer does not G always send an error message to DCPS. Use the DELETE /ENTRY command to G remove the job from the queue and make the printer available for other H jobs. If the LN15 printer displays "PS Error 19" or the LN15+ H displays "WAIT TIMEOUT / Press Continue", you must also press G the CONTINUE button on the printer to resume printing. To avoid having B to press the printer button, set the printer's PostScript timeout setting to a value of 0. Z 18.6.4 Jobs May Not Issue Failure Notifications
H Jobs that are printed with the /NOTIFY qualifier and fail may not issue H failure messages. You will, however, get a DCPS error page printed when such errors occur. m 18.7 DIGITAL Laser Printer LN17+ps and LN17+ps
F The DIGITAL Laser Printer LN17+ps is an upgrade to the DIGITAL LN17ps D printer. References in the DCPS documentation to the DIGITAL LN17ps 8 printer also apply to the DIGITAL Laser Printer LN17+ps. X 18.7.1 Output May Be Clipped on the LN17ps
A Printer output on the LN17ps might be clipped when the following conditions are met:
F When you specify an INPUT_TRAY value of FRONT or MULTIPURPOSE for the G LN17ps along with a sheet size, DCPS requires you to specify the sheet 4 size that matches the console-specified manual size. Y 18.8 DIGITAL Laser Printer LN40

E The following problems can be seen on the DIGITAL Laser Printer LN40 ? printer when the printer console setting OFFSET STACKING is ON:
B The Compaq Laser Printer LNC02 is equivalent to the DIGITAL Laser C Printer LNC02. References in the DCPS documentation to the DIGITAL A Laser Printer LNC02 also apply to the Compaq Laser Printer LNC02. C 18.9.1 Incorrect Sheet Count
D The sheet count reported on the job trailer page and in the OpenVMS @ accounting file is incorrect due to a limitation with the LNC02 B printer. There is no known workaround. The LNC02 has, however, an A accounting feature that can be used to track printer utilization. P 18.10 HP 9085 MFP
R 18.10.1 Selecting Paper of Non-Default Size
H This printer does not return all information requested by DCPS during a H print job. Specifically, the size of paper in the requested tray is not E then known to DCPS. Therefore, it is not possible to select paper by F tray name alone if the paper in the tray is not the printer's default F size. If INPUT_TRAY is specified and that tray contains paper that is D not the printer's default size, the printer will prompt you to load paper of the requested size.
B To select a tray that contains paper that is not of the printer's H default size, use a combination of the parameters MEDIA_TYPE, PAGE_SIZE ( and/or SHEET_SIZE instead of INPUT_TRAY. T 18.11 HP LaserJet Printers
P 18.11.1 Incomplete Printing of ANSI Text
@ The HP LaserJet IIID, LaserJet IIISi LaserJet 4M, LaserJet 4ML, B LaserJet 4MX, and LaserJet 4SiMX printers have a slightly smaller F printable area than other printers. As a result, if you print an ANSI F text file that utilizes 66 lines per page, the bottom three points of the 66th line will not print.
A You can work around this restriction by using layup options. One ? solution is to create and use a layup definition file with the following options:
|
" noborders margins = 0, 3, 0, 0 |
? Or, you can provide those options directly on the command line:
|
" N $ PRINT /PARAMETERS=(LAYUP="(NOBORDERS;MARGINS=0,3,0,0)") |
G The LaserJet 5M printer has a similar restriction for 66 lines of ANSI E text, except that you need to allow for an 11-point (versus 3-point) bottom margin. U 18.12 HP LaserJet 4MV
L 18.12.1 Support for B5 Paper Sizes
E The 4MV printer supports both the JIS and ISO standards for B5 paper E sizes. For this printer, the JIS size is regarded as paper while the C ISO size is regarded as an envelope. In DCPS, there is only one B5 C option for specifying sheet size. DCPS handles the two B5 sizes as follows:
| Parameter | (Configuration | !Result |
|---|---|---|
| SHEET_SIZE=B5 | ISO is loaded in tray xxx | 2 Pages print in tray xxx with ISO image area |
| SHEET_SIZE=B5 | JIS is loaded in tray xxx | D DCPS reports "B5 medium not loaded in printer_name" |
| 8 INPUT_TRAY=xxx, SHEET_SIZE=B5 (xxx is MANUAL_FEED) | ' ISO or JIS is loaded in tray xxx | I Pages print in tray xxx with ISO image area, regardless of the B5 variant |
| E INPUT_TRAY=xxx, SHEET_SIZE=B5 (xxx is anything but MANUAL_FEED) | ' ISO or JIS is loaded in tray xxx | N Pages print in tray xxx with the correct image area for each B5 variant |
G The 5SiMX printer supports both the JIS and ISO standards for B5 paper ~ sizes. DCPS handles the two B5 sizes as described in Section 18.12.1. A 18.13.2 Optional Mailbox
H DCPS numbers the optional mailbox bins on the HP 5SiMX printer from one D through eight, which is consistent with the numbers molded into the C plastic beside the bins. The 5SiMX console, in contrast, refers to , these same bins as numbers two through nine. p 18.14 HP Color LaserJet 2500, LaserJet 2100 and 2200
I 18.14.1 Media Size Not Selectable
F The HP Color LaserJet 2500 and LaserJet 2100 and 2200 printers cannot B detect the size of paper in their trays. Therefore, the following 5 restrictions apply when using DCPS with this printer:
A To avoid printing on the wrong size paper, set the tray with the @ default paper size "unlocked" and set all other trays "locked". k 18.15 HP LaserJet 4200, 4300, 9000 and 9000 MFP
; 18.15.1 Stapling
B Output trays STACKER and STAPLER refer to the same physical tray, . included with the printer's optional finisher.
A The preferred way to specify stapling is with the DCPS parameter D STAPLE, which offers four different staple positions and takes page F orientation into account when determining staple position. Therefore, > when specifying stapled output with the STAPLE parameter, use OUTPUT_TRAY=STACKER.
F If you specify OUTPUT_TRAY=STAPLER, the printer will staple output by G default and place the staple in the printer's default staple position. > Job burst and flag pages, if any, will be stapled to your job.
E Not all staple positions are possible given the printer's paper feed E direction and page orientation specified. Also, the HP LaserJet 9000 H offers more possible stapling positions than the LaserJet 4200 and 4300 H printers, which can staple only at the top left for portrait output and top right for landscape output. a 18.16 HP LaserJet 8000, 8100 and 8150
B 18.16.1 Optional Mailbox
G DCPS numbers the optional mailbox bins on the HP LaserJet 8000 printer D from 1-5, 1-7 or 1-8, depending on the particular option installed. G This is consistent with the numbers molded into the plastic beside the G bins. The printer's console, in contrast, refers to these same bins as G numbers two through nine. Refer to the HP LaserJet User Guide D for your printer model for more information about the numbering and ; purpose of trays with different options and configurations. Y 18.17 Lexmark Optra Rt+
N 18.17.1 Support for B5 Paper Sizes
E The Optra Rt+ printer supports both the JIS and ISO standards for B5 ; paper sizes. DCPS handles the two B5 sizes as described in I Section 18.12.1. V 18.18 Lexmark Optra S
` 18.18.1 Printing Otherenvelope and Universal Paper Sizes
A Lexmark Optra S printers can print paper sizes Otherenvelope and D Universal. Otherenvelopetray (612 x 996) and Universal (612 x 1020) F have different page sizes than Legal (612 x 1008). However, they have H the same imageable area as Legal (600 x 996), so will be treated as the D same size. Users wanting these sizes should specify PAGE_SIZE=LEGAL. t 18.19 Xerox Phaser 4500, 6250, 7300, 7750 and 8400
M 18.19.1 Protocols Supported
W 18.19.2 Media Type Selection Not Supported
G It is not possible to select paper by media type on these printers. If G you specify a value for the MEDIA_TYPE parameter, your request will be ignored.
