The LaserWriter Select 310 printer has an extensive collection of parameters that control
its behavior. This section describes how to set the following types of parameters:
■ system parameters
■ page device parameters
■ user parameters
■ device parameters
■ communication parameters
■ engine device parameters
■ parameters that are extensions to PostScript Level 1
■ the printer error parameter
Table 2-4 lists the parameters by type, in the order described. Although certain parameters
are described as persistent, the LaserWriter Select 310 printer does not have nonvolatile
memory (EEROM), so the values of these parameters do not persist when the printer is
turned off and then on again. However, they do persist between jobs if they are executed
outside the server loop.
