Special Settings

Special SettingsAutomatic Tray Selection

The selection of paper in the 9045N printer follow certain rules in situations where the requestedand loaded media do not match.

If you ask for a specific tray, which has according to the paper menu the requested media typeassigned and tray linking is set to off, but there is no media loaded in that tray the job will not con-tinue until you load the tray with media. The printer will stop and advise that a certain type and sizeof paper needs to be put into the specified tray. If linking is on it will automatically go to anothertray with the correct size and type.

If you request a specific type of media to be loaded from a specific tray and that tray does not havethe required media type set in the media type loaded and tray linking is on, the printer will select thepaper from another tray with the correctly loaded paper.

If tray linking is off you have two choices:

If you change the media type of the requested tray in the paper menu to the correct type andpress start it will feed from that tray. It will also assume that the correct media type is nowloaded in the tray. The print speed may also be changed as required for that media type.

If you do not change the paper then it will feed from the default tray and assume the papertype assigned to that default tray in the paper menu when you press the start key.

To overcome possible conflicts the best setting to use for tray selection within the driver is oftenAuto-Sense.

Paper Size

When making selections for a print job, Auto-Sense will not work with the following paper sizes:

Statement COM10

Monarch

A6

C5

DL

To use these sizes you must use the operator panel on the printer to turn off Auto-Sense for thetray and set the intended paper size.

Figure 3-2

Figure 3-3

7. Reinstall the side covers in reverse order (Steps 3, 4, and 5).

8. Connect the power cord to the wall outlet. Turn the printer power switch to the ON position.

NOTE: Note that the maximum memory useable by the printer is 512K irrespective of the size of

additional memory installed

Installing the Hard Disk Option in the Printer


1. Carefully review the safety precautions in the front of this guide before starting this installa-tion procedure.

2. Ensure that the printer power switch is set to the OFF position.

3. Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.4. Remove the inside panel (see Installing DRAM Memory DIMMS Figure 3-1).

5. Locate the area of the controller identified as Hard Disk. Ensure that there is a plasticfemale insert fitted into the board into which the supplied plastic rivet can be fitted in stage 8.

Align the hard disk within the designated area and gently move up to ensure the 44-pin maleconnector of the hard disk is connected to the 44-pin female connector on the controllerassembly.

Figure 3-4.

6. Be sure to align the Hard Drive as depicted by the alignment drawing on the controller, mak-ing sure that the two top pins to the left of the connector are free standing and not con-nected.

7. If there is improper alignment, remove the Hard Drive and reinstall.

Figure 3-6

NOTE: Improper alignment will damage the hard drive and possibly the controller board.

8. Insert the plastic rivet through the aligned hole.

Figure 3-7

9. Reinstall the covers in reverse order (see Installing DRAM Memory DIMMS Steps 3, 4,and 5).

10. Connect the power cord to the wall outlet.Turn the printer power switch to the ON position. When ready the printer will advise to press the select key to format the hard drive.

This has to be done so that the hard drive can be used.

The installation of your Hard Disk option in your printer is now complete.

Using the Hard Disk Option and CF Card

NOTE: 1. The Flash Menu and Disk Menu will only appear when the respective FLASH Card and/

or Hard Disk option is installed.

2. Power-On Files menu will only appear if either a FLASH Card or a Hard Disk option is

installed and power-on files exist.

Using the Disk Menu

Manipulation of files stored on the hard disk option can be accomplished using the Disk Menu.

Print

This selection will read the selected file from the Hard Disk and print it as if it were being receivedfrom one of the input ports.

Delete

This selection will delete the selected disk file or directory from the hard drive. To delete an entiredirectory, you must first delete all the files within that directory.

Format Disk

This selection will reformat the hard drive. All files on the hard drive will be deleted if this functionis selected.

Disk Summary

This selection will print a page containing information about the hard disk drive including a list ofall the current existing files and directories.

Using the FLASH or Hard Disk Option as a PostScript Device

In order to allow PostScript programs to access the FLASH and/or hard disk options, a full imple-mentation of a PostScript storage device is provided. This section discusses an overview of the

PostScript operators and parameter sets that are included in the support.

For detailed information on using the operators/parameter sets, please refer to the following publi-cations:

PostScript Language Reference Manual

Adobe PostScript 3 Version 3010 Product Supplement

Device Names and Priority

The device names assigned to the FLASH and hard disk options are as follows:

If both devices are installed, both devices can be referenced uniquely by name. If no device name isspecified in the PostScript operation, the SearchOrderparameter in the device parameter set estab-lishes the priority for file operations. When both devices are installed, the SearchOrdervalue for thehard disk is set to 1, while the SearchOrdervalue for the FLASH is set to 2. This gives priority to thehard disk.

PostScript Operators

All of the standard file-object related operators (file, read, write, etc.) are supported. In addition,following is a list of device-related PostScript Compatibility operators that are supported for use

with the FLASH (%flash%) or hard disk (%disk0%) options: devdismount

devforall

devformat

devmount

devstatus

diskonline

diskstatus

%flash% device name for the FLASH

%disk0% device name for the hard disk

Device Parameter Sets

When installed, a device parameter set will be supported for either or both FLASH and hard diskoptions. The parameter sets can be referenced using the device names%flash% or%disk0%. Eachparameter set will include the following parameters:

LogicalSize

Writeable

BlockSize

Searchable

Warmstart.ps and Sys/Start Files

When either or both the FLASH or hard disk options are installed, there are two features whichprovide support for automatic execution of a PostScript program during power-on initialization.

The first feature is the warmstart.psfile. Each time the printer is powered on, either or both optionalstorage devices will be checked for a file named warmstart.ps. If this file is found, it will be read andparsed by the PostScript interpreter. It is up to the PostScript programmer to create the content ofthis file and get the file onto the storage device using the PostScript device and file operators.

The second feature is the Sys/Startfile. If either or both of the optional storage devices areinstalled, an additional parameter will be supported in the System Parameter set. This parameter isan integer parameter called StartupModeand is set to 1 by default.

NOTE: This parameter can be read or written using the dosysstartand setdosysstartoperators.

Each time the printer is powered on, if the StartupMode parameter is set to 1, either or both theoptional storage devices will be searched for a file called Sys/Start, a file named Startin a path calledSys. If this file is found, it will be read and parsed by the PostScript interpreter. Again, it is up to thePostScript programmer to create the content of this file and get the file onto the storage deviceusing the PostScript device and file operators.

Using the Power-On Files Feature

Using the Power-On Files Feature

Power-on Files Defined

If a FLASH Card or hard disk drive is installed in your printer, your printer has the capability ofstoring additional power-on files which can be read and interpreted at power-on. Power-on files are

processed at power-on initialization only and not at the start of every print.

Power-on files can contain either PCL or PostScript language content. Examples of power-on filesinclude soft fonts, and macro/overlay definitions. The FLASH Card can store a minimum ofapproximately 2MB of file storage, the hard disk drive storage depends on the size of the drive thatis installed in your printer.

Optional operator panel menu selections become available when either of these options areinstalled and power-on files are detected.
