ManualFeed

boolean

Indicates if the current (or active) source is a manual source. The following values
are supported:

True

Manual feed

False

Automatic feed

If ManualFeed is set to True, and a change is made to

PageSize

,

MediaWeight

,

MediaColor

, or

MediaType

parameters, no matching occurs. It is assumed that

the correct page is fed.

Note:

ManualFeed is initialized at the start of each print job according to the

default paper source set by the operator panel menus or through PJL. If the
default paper source is a manual source, ManualFeed is set to True. If the default
paper source is not a manual paper source, ManualFeed is set to False.

ManualFeedTimeout

integer

Indicates the amount of time that the printer waits for you to manually load a
sheet of paper.

0

infinite wait or no timeout

If the timeout expires, a

timeout

error is generated.

This is initialized at the start of each PostScript emulation job to the value of the

Feed Timeout

menu item value.

MediaColor

string name
or null

Specifies the color of the current media.

MediaPosition

integer

Specifies the tray to select, if possible, whether it is the best match or not.

Policies

may be consulted to determine the selection. For example, assume

there is legal-size paper in Tray 1 and letter-size paper in all the other trays, and
the

Policy

for the

PageSize

page device parameter is 1. The command

<< /PageSize [612 1008]/MediaPosition 1 >> setpagedevice

selects Tray 2 even though Tray 1 is a perfect match, because the

PageSize

Policy

of 1 allows the

PageSize

to be ignored.

MediaType

string name
or null

Indicates the type of the current media. The value of the string is arbitrary and
may describe any attribute not already defined by size, color, or weight.

MediaWeight

integer or
null

Specifies the weight of the current media in g/m

2

. The value is either null or a

number.

NumCopies

integer or
null

Specifies the number of copies of each page that should be printed. If the value is
null, the current value of #copies determines the number of copies to print.

Nup

boolean

Determines if Nup is On or Off. Use the Nup function to print multiple page
images on a single page, where the value of

N

refers to the number of pages. For

example, 2-Up means two page images are printed on one page.

True

Nup is On and the

NupDetails

parameters are active.

False

Nup is Off.

For some printers, the value of Nup is set through the

Multipage Printing

menu

item. For more information about multipage printing (Nup), see your printer
documentation.
