completion. Some operating systems, such as NetWare,
provide the ability to insert a reset sequence at the end of
each job, in which case the TROY XCD print server null
reset is adequate. Also, Microsoft Windows printer drivers
typically provide a printer reset at the end of each job. But
for those operating systems that do not provide this reset
capability, TROY XCD print servers provide the ability to
customize the printer reset to meet the requirements of
virtually any type of printer.
The following predefined reset strings are available.
No. Definition Printer
1 Null (use if no reset is desired)
2 <ESC>E PCL printer
3 CTRL-D PostScript printer
4 <ESC>%-12345X PJL (use with newer HP and
Lexmark/IBM printers)
11 <Formfeed> General
Refer to your printer documentation if you do not know the
proper reset string. Use the null string if you are planning to
reset the printer from the host software (for example, from a
Windows driver). If you want to define a new reset string,
refer to Appendix B, Using Services.
Note that you can put a printer reset either before or after
each job, although generally the reset goes at the end the job.
TROY XCD print servers allow you to define multiple
services for a given port. This is useful, for example, if you
want to use different reset strings with the same printer. For
example, you might want to define a service for UNIX jobs
that contains a <ESC-E> reset, and a different service for
NetWare that has no reset.
Print jobs are normally sent to service 1 (XCD_xxxxxx_P1,
where "xxxxxx" is the last six digits of Ethernet address, for
