COAX SCS
MENU ITEM
VALUE Description
APO ENABLE*
DISABLE
Enables or disables automatic print orientation.
ENABLE—if the requested dimensions of the job fit on the
paper, the page is printed either in portrait or landscape,
whichever better fits the dimensions. If the requested
dimensions do not fit on the paper, the default orientation for
the tray (COR, PORT, LAND, or C-PORT) determines how
the sheet is printed.
DISABLE—the page prints using the default orientation for
the tray (COR, PORT, LAND, or C-PORT).
Notes:
1. Values specified in the data stream override values set at the
printer.
2. The factory defaults (orientation set to COR and
APO=ENABLE) give you the most flexibility.
3. The
requested dimensions
are determined by the values of
CPI, LINE SPACING, MPP, and MPL for the job. These
values can be set in the data stream or on the Coax SCS
Menu.
LPI 0
6*
8
Specifies a default lines per inch value for jobs received over the
coax attachment. Valid values are 0, 6, and 8. The default is 6.
0 specifies either the value specified in the job or the PCL default
value for the printer.
LINE SPACING 1*
2
Specifies single or double spacing:
1—single spacing
2—double spacing
CPI nn Specifies the default characters per inch, or pitch. nn can be 0,
10,12,15,16.7, 20, or 27. The default is 10. 0 specifies a
proportional font (FGID 1452). Note that proportional fonts use
proportional spacing, which may cause unexpected results (for
example, tabular data may appear misaligned).
CASE DUAL*
MONO
Specifies the case of the printed text:
DUAL—characters print in the case received
MONO—all characters print in uppercase
MPL nnn Specifies the maximum page length (MPL) in lines per page.
Valid values are 1 to 255. 66 is the default. If the MPL value is
set to 1, no vertical formatting will be done, so no form feeds will
be generated for your data. Your application must specify form
feeds.
MPP nnn Specifies the maximum print position (MPP). Valid values are 1
to 255. 132 is the default. If the MPP value is set to 1, no
horizontal formatting will be done, so no new lines will be
generated for your data. Your application must specify new lines.
