HP 2420 - Manual (Page 178)

Network administrators can use the Form to Tray Assignment setting to specify, in the driver, the
media size that is loaded into each available input tray. The use of forms constrains the choices that
are available in the media-size list on the Advanced tab in the Document Defaults driver tabs. This
constraint prevents (or reduces the likelihood of) tying up the product with media-mount messages
that occur when users request sizes or types that are not available.
The trays listed in the Form to Tray Assignment setting include standard trays and optional
accessory trays. Generally, items that are installed separately have a separate Installable Options
setting. For example, for the HP LaserJet 2430t printer, tray 3 is listed in both the Form to Tray
Assignment setting and the Installable Options setting.
The input trays listed here are also listed as media sources on the Page Setup tab.
Font Substitution Table
Clicking this option opens the font substitution table and makes available the options for changing
the TrueType-to-PostScript font mapping.
Postscript Configure
The following controls are available in the Postscript section of the PS Emulation Driver Device
Settings tab.
Available PostScript Memory
This control specifies the amount of available postscript memory and provides a spin box for
changing this value. The available postscript memory is a subset of the product total physical
memory. It is usually best to set the postscript memory to match what is shown on the configuration
page. To print a configuration page, follow these steps:
1 Press the S
ELECT
button (the one with the check mark) to open the menus.
2 Press the up and down buttons to scroll to INFORMATION, and then press the S
ELECT
button.
3 Press the up and down buttons to scroll to PRINT CONFIGURATION.
4 Press the S
ELECT
button to print the configuration page.
Output Protocol
This control specifies the protocol that the product uses for print jobs. The following options are
available:
■ ASCII (default)
■ TBCP
■ Binary
When you click ASCII, data is sent in ASCII format (7-bit), which might take longer to print but can be
sent through any I/O channel, such as a serial, parallel, or network port.
When you click TBCP (Tagged Binary Communications Protocol), all data except special control
characters is sent in binary (8-bit) format. The binary formats can be sent over parallel or serial
communications ports and are faster than sending data in ASCII format.
