PCL offset/separator/subset finishing command
The use of the PCL separator command, ESCl1T, in
combination with DocuSP queue defaults enables subset
finishing for PCL jobs. The PCL separator command defines
offset segments of a job. PCL does not commonly support
finishing. However, the use of the PCL separator command
allows offset segments of a job to be finished based on the
finishing default set on the queue. For example, if the queue
default is portrait stitch, all segments of a job where the PCL
separator command has been used will be stitched.
The placement guidelines are as follows:
