Selecting Paper Paths From The Host

Computer Using DPCL

Command

In demand document applications, the paper path may be selected by using Downline
Profile Control Language (DPCL) sequences to select the active Profile. This command is
available in all emulation modes. Selecting a profile using DPCL commands will allow
paper path selection from the host computer. For more information on configuring
features and profiles, see Chapter 4.

After the profile is configured, it may be selected from the host computer using DPCL
sequences. The paper path will be selected according to the profile selection. Refer to
previous section 3.13 for further information on paper path selection using profiles.
The DPCL sequence to change profiles is active in all emulations.

Select Profile (form)
SC$$E1.118;.X.

Description: This command is used to select Profile n where values of n range from 1 to

the maximum number of profiles supported (approximately 10). The Paper
Path may be selected by the Host Computer by configuring the `Path'
feature to Main, Alt, or Either, and by selecting the Profile using this
sequence.

NOTE

In dual tractor units, the most frequently
used form should be loaded in the main
path and other forms in the alternate
path. Now, changing profiles will prompt
the operator to load the correct form in
the alternate path. To ensure the correct
form is loaded, the alternate path should
be left empty when not in use. This will
cause the printer to stop and indicate
which form
to load when the path is
selected.
