Media Type
The paper source can be selected using the following options to specify the media type.
In PostScript, Deferred Media Selection is always turned on so the paper size has priority over the media type and the 
paper source.
In PCL5e, the paper size always has priority over the media type and the paper source.
If this option is not specified, the default value will be used.
Example: The command to specify Thick1 media type is “lp -d <queuename> -o mtype=Thick1 <filename>”.
‰
Paper Source
The paper source can be selected using the following options.
In PostScript, Deferred Media Selection is always turned on so the paper size has priority over the paper source. In 
PCL5e, the paper size always has priority over the paper source.
If this option is not specified the command will not be sent so the printer’s default value will be used.
Example: The command to specify the drawer 1 paper source is “lp -d <queuename> - o drawer1 <filename>”.
‰
Duplexing
The current duplex mode can be specified using the following options.
If this option is not specified, the default value “simplex” will be used.
It is not necessary to specify duplexing for Booklet Mode (sduplex). Setting duplexing separately can override the booklet 
mode setting for duplexing.
Example: The command to specify long edge duplexing is “lp -d <queuename> -o duplex <filename>”.
