* Printing landscapeson legalpaper istrickier.First setonportraitmode and
send the command <ESC> &? 84P and then change the orientation to
landscape.
An example: Say you want to manually print legal-size pages at eight lines
per inch. The following commands combine manual feeding with that page
le~gth:
<ESC> &t2h 112P
If your command specifies a page length different than the paper in the tray,
the printer will go offline and display a message asking for the proper tray.
After you change the tray, press the [ON LINE] button to restart the printer. It
doesn’t hurt to print short pages on long paper. If you inadvertently print a
legal-sizepage onto executive or letter-sizepaper, the printer will scroll that
page across two sheets.
If you have set the paper feeder from the control panel to “AUTO SELEC-
TION”, a “select page length” command (<ESC> &/n P) will automatically
select the cassette which contains the paper selected by the command. If no
cassette currently contains the right size of paper, the display will ask you to
insert the appropriate size of paper.
Also, the Page Length command puts all margins back to their defaults. So
after you send it, check whether you have to send any of the following
margin-setting commands.
