HP (Hewlett-Packard) QMS 1660E Printer User Manual


 
commands perform an end of document for all of the printer
emulations supported on your printer (PostScript, HP-GL, HP PCL,
and Lineprinter).
See your system administrator or applications development depart-
ment to have them identify the standard EOD command for your
organization, or to have them select a standard EOD command.
Your printer can be connected through the serial or parallel interface
to a stand-alone PC, to a PC print server, or to some other type of
print queuing system. This section provides a quick guide to the steps
needed to set the end job mode for each environment. The following
sections provide more detailed information for each step.
1 Set the end job mode from the printer's control panel.
2 Add the EOD command to your file.
» Note:
If using steps 1 and 2 is not feasible in your stand-alone
PC environment, you can alternatively use a program that either
causes an emulation timeout or that inserts an EOD command
between each print job. See your QMS vendor for more
information on this type of program.
1 Set the end job mode from the printer’s control panel.
2 Create a job separator to append an EOD command and
send it between each print job.
If you use a print queuing system other than a PC print server and
you experience what appears to be an EOD command problem, you
may need to use another procedure, such as a print utility, an initial-
ization sequence, or a header page to add an EOD command. See
