<p><span class="bold">Page definition and the printer file</span></p>
|
||
|
|
<p>When you specify a page definition on the printer file, some printer file
|
||
|
|
parameters might be ignored when the spooled file is printed through Print Services Facility™ (PSF). For example, if you specify a page definition and also specify
|
||
|
|
line data or mixed data, an inline page definition is not built. In this case,
|
||
|
|
the following happens: </p>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>If you send line data with a printer file to an Advanced Function Presentation™ (AFP™) printer, PSF ignores these printer file parameters:
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>CDEFNT</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>CHRID</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>CPI</li>

<li>FOLD</li>

|
<li>FONT</li>
|

|
|
<li>LPI</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>MULTIUP</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>PAGESIZE</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>PAGRTT</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>REDUCE</li></ul></li>
|
||
|
|
<li>If you send the line data with a page definition to a non-AFP printer
|
||
|
|
with a device type of *LINE, the page definition parameter is ignored
|
||
|
|
and the printer file parameters are used. The line data is converted to SNA
|
||
|
|
character string (SCS) or Intelligent Printer Data
|
||
|
|
Stream™ (IPDS™).</li></ul>
|
||
|
|
<p><span class="bold">Form definition and the printer file</span></p>
|
||
|
|
<p>When using a form definition, depending on the specifications given, some
|
||
|
|
printer file parameters might be ignored when output is printed through PSF.
|
||
|
|
For example, if you specify a form definition, an inline form definition is
|
||
|
|
not built. In this case, if you send the line data with a form definition
|
||
|
|
to an AFP device, PSF ignores these printer file parameters: </p>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>BACKMGN</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>CORNERSTPL</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>EDGESTITCH</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>FORMFEED</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>FRONTMGN</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>MULTIUP (N_UP)</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>PAGRTT</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>PRTQLTY</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>REDUCE (N_UP)</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>SADLSTITCH</li></ul><p class="indatacontent"> However, if you send the line data with a form definition to a non-AFP
|
||
|
|
printer with a device type of *IPDS or *SCS in this example,
|
||
|
|
the form definition parameter is ignored and the printer file parameters are
|
||
|
|
used.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>When specifying a form definition, the values you specify on the printer
|
||
|
|
file's DRAWER and DUPLEX parameters override those values specified in the
|
||
|
|
form definition. To use the drawer and duplex values specified in the form
|
||
|
|
definition, specify DRAWER(*FORMDF) and DUPLEX(*FORMDF)
|
||
|
|
on the printer file.</p>
