Lexmark X644e User Guide

If you are using the PostScript emulation operators run, file, renamefile, status or 
eexec, you do not need to specify the device. If you omit the device name, devices are 
searched in the default order: disk and then flash memory. If the following PostScript 
emulation code is encountered,

(myfile) (w) file

the file on disk is used (since disk occurs before flash memory in the default search 
order), and files cannot be created in ROM.

The operator deletefile searches only the first device in the default search order if a 
device is not specified.

Use the PostScript emulation operators devmount, devdismount to change the 
order. The default search order is determined by the order the devices are mounted. 
For example, if you want to place the disk device after the flash memory in the default 
search order, use the following command sequence:

(%disk%) devdismount

(%disk%) devmount

To change the order so the devices are searched as disk, flash memory, and then 
ROM, use the following PostScript emulation command sequence:

(%rom%) devdismount

(%flash%) devdismount
(%disk%) devdismount
(%disk%) devmount
(%flash%) devmount
(%rom%) devmount

If the device is already mounted, the following operators may change the search order:

•

•

•

<</InitializeAction>>setdevparams

Sending these operators has the following effect on the devices in the search order:

If mounted, 

 devdismount

Formats the device

If dismounted in step 1, (

) devmount

If you do not want a device searched, dismount it and leave it dismounted.
