HP (Hewlett-Packard) QMS 1660 Printer User Manual


 
Allows you to choose whether to retain temporary HP PCL 5 fonts
and macros at the end of each print job.
Notes If the font is not scalable or if a bitmap font is specified, this
setting is ignored.
Menu Administration/Emulations/HP PCL 5/Retain Temporary
Choices Off—Reset PCL to its default state at the end of each PCL
print job, execute an implicit <ESC>E at the start and end
of the job, and delete any temporary fonts, macros, and
patterns.
On—Reset PCL to its default state at the end of each PCL
print job. Temporary fonts, macros, and patterns from
previous PCL print jobs are retained in memory after the
print job has completed. You can recall these downloaded
fonts, macros, and patterns from within your PCL file
without having to download them again.
On Compatibility—Retain the entire state of PCL as well as the
temporary macros, fonts, and patterns from previous PCL
jobs unless you do one of the following:
Change any PCL front panel option
Send any PCL-specific DOC command—except the DOC
emulation command
Send any other DOC command, such as number of cop-
ies, duplex, orientation, or inputbin
Send a PCL job from a different communications port—
for examples, if the PCL print environment is set for PCL
jobs to print from the parallel port, and a PCL job is sent
from the serial port
If any one of these occurs, the PCL state is reset to the new
default, and the previous state is lost.
