When using tabs and ordered stock:
•
All applications that are printed on a tab have pages
formatted for tab printing. If there is a PDE switch in the job
stream that causes the BEGIN value to be shifted off the
page, such as BEGIN = (.18, 8.6), the stock criteria must
already be met before the new BEGIN is processed. This
sequence allows the input task to ignore the BEGIN value
when checking for tab stocks.
• The XJDC compiler ensures the minimum value for mod is 1
and the maximum is 255 (decimal). It also ensures the value
of pos is greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to
mod.
• Printing on tabs: Following are some considerations for
printing on tabs.
– Use the OSTK option before trying to run a tab job.
– The printer prints on tabs in both simplex and duplex
modes.
– Imaging area: When the printer is printing on 9 inch (229
mm) stock or 8.5 inch (216 mm) stock with half inch (13
mm) tabs, the full imaging area of 9 inches (229 mm) is
enabled. It is limited, however, by the amount of image
shift that is enabled.
L or P Landscape or Portrait.
Indicates at which edge of the paper the tab is located. If L, it is located at the
right edge of the landscape oriented page. If it is P, it is located at the right
edge of the portrait oriented page.
The default is P.
