Toshiba 455 Manuel D’Utilisation

122    Printing from an Application

‰

The collate option can be selected using the following options.

If this option is not specified, the default value of “collate=on” will be used.
Example: The command to select collate off is “lp -d <queuename> -o collate=off <filename>”.

‰

The following orientation options are available.

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 landscape orientation is “lp -d <queuename> -o landscape <filename>”.

‰

If the pitch is specified, the net_estbw program will always select the Courier font; otherwise the default font is used. The 
following options are used to select the font pitch.

In all the cases shown above, the Courier font will also be selected. When the pitch is changed, the font size will 
automatically be scaled to the appropriate size.
If this option is not specified, the default pitch and font will be used.
Example: The command to specify 8 characters per inch is “lp -d <queuename> -o pitch=8 <filename>”.

‰

The number of lines to print on a page can be specified with the following option.

As this equipment is a page printer, we cannot change the physical length of a piece of paper so the actual effect of this 
command is to change the value for lines per inch so that the requested number of lines is printed on the page. The actual 
page length may differ from this value if the top margin or the text length option is used.
If this option is not specified, the PJL command will not be sent so the printer’s default value will be used. The minimum 
page length allowable is 5. If value is less than 5, page length is set to 5.
The command to specify 66 lines per page is “lp -d <queuename> -o pl=66 <filename>”.
