10/10/03 CHAPTER 2 "PCL " - 11 3. CONTROLLING THE PRINTER 3.1. Control Codes Control codes are AS CII codes that te ll the printer t o perform a gi ven function, such as a carriage ret urn. You can send these codes to the printer as part of a program.
10/10/03 CHAPTER 2 "PCL" - 12 3.2. Escape Seque nces Escape sequences, al so known as PCL (Printer C ontro l Language) com mands, tel l the printer which operations to perform. An esca pe sequence consists of the Esc character fol lowed by a string of chara cters which define t he operation to be performed.
10/10/03 CHAPTER 2 "PCL " - 13 3.2.3. Display functions mode You can choose to make the printer print es cape sequences instead of executing them . Send the printer the following seque nce: EscY (27)(89) <1B><59> Now the printer print s out escape sequences and prints the charact ers of the control codes.
10/10/03 CHAPTER 2 "PCL" - 14 3.3. Environment s 3.3.1.

10/10/03 CHAPTER 2 "PCL" - 94 8. STATUS READBACK 8.1. Introduction Status readback features are explained in t his sec tion. The printer sends a sta tus response message after receiving a request for its stat us by these c ommands. You can get t he informat ion as shown below from the printe r.
10/10/03 CHAPTER 2 "PCL " - 95 8.5. Status Response Syntax All of the st atus responses begin with "PCL", Carriage Return control code and a Line Fe ed control code. The response is ended by a Carriage Return and a Line Feed c ontrol code.

10/10/03 CHAPTER 2 "PCL " - 97 In a font status response, the "SELECT=" key word line specifies the indi vidual fonts. The font is ident ified by this line by specifying t he font selec tion characteri stics such a s symbol se t, spacing, pit ch, height, styl e, stroke weight, and ty pefaces.
10/10/03 CHAPTER 2 "PCL" - 98 "LOCUNIT=" s pecifies th e location u nit of the font whic h is selected at pr esent. Th e value fie ld of the Set Status Read back U nit command is related to th e value return ed.
10/10/03 CHAPTER 2 "PCL " - 99 For instance, a font extended response with the l ocation type set to 1( select ed at present ) where the font which is selecte d at present is the i nternal Pc Tennessee (18 point identifi ed for printing) bold, ret urns the response as follow s.
10/10/03 CHAPTER 2 "P CL" - 100 Status locat ion type 1 (selected a t present) is an incorrect l ocation for unbound font symbol sets and returns an error. Example responses in thi s section for "SYMBOLSETS=" do not indicat e the complete li st of symbol sets whi ch are available internally , but only a part ial list .
10/10/03 CHAPTER 2 "PCL " - 101 8.5.17. Font cache In order to print characters from a scalable font , the printer changes the scalable chara cter outlines into siz ed bitmaps. The se bitma pped characters are produced on a character-by-charac ter basis and the produced bitmappe d characters are stored i n mem ory.

10/10/03 CHAPTER 5 PJL - 4 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. About PJL Printer Job Language(PJL) provides job status control by sendi ng the printer status inform ation to the applicati on. PJL can be a valuable t ool for the singl e-user environm ent, but is a much m ore useful tool for the networking / sharing environm ent.
10/10/03 CHAPTER 5 PJL - 5 1.2. In Case of Using PJL with a Non-P JL Printe r Our recent pri nter model s support PJL, howeve r, earlier models do not .

10/10/03 CHAPTER 5 PJL - 7 1.4. Variabl es PJL can use alphanumeri c variables, nume ric variabless and strings. 1.4.1. Alphanumeric variables The first chara cter m ust alway s be a charact er in the allowable range of letters and di gits. Lette rs consists of the uppercase charact ers (ASCII 65-90) and lowerc ase characters (A SCII 97-122).
10/10/03 CHAPTER 5 PJL - 8 2. HOW TO USE PJL 2.1. Overview PJL resides "above" print er languages such as Postscript and PC L. Each job can be distinguished from the other jobs by P JL, and it c an switch between PJL c omma nds and printer l anguage com mands for eac h job.
10/10/03 CHAPTER 5 PJL - 9 3. COMMAND GROUP Command Group Command Command Description Kernel Com mands UEL Exits current printer l anguage and returns control to PJL. EXECUTE O rders th e printe r to execu te the specifie d operation. SUPERUSER Moves to the SUPERUSER mode.
10/10/03 CHAPTER 5 PJL - 10 4. KERNEL COMMANDS 4.1. Introduction This section explains t hree PJL com mand, UE L , ENTER and COMMENT . These comm ands provide the minim um set of tools to operate job control. UEL comm and (Universal Exit Com mand) ENTER comm and COMMENT command 4.
