Hi, I would like to print on a Xerox 7835 printer
With LasetJet Printer trays, this work fine but not with Xerox 7835. With LaserJet, trays PostScript instruction are for Tray 1 : /MediaPosition 1 for Tray 2 : /MediaPosition 2 With Xerox : for Tray 1 : (tray1) xerox$MediaInputTray for Tray 2 : (tray2) xerox$MediaInputTray Here is an extract of my IF file (Intermediate Format) for LaserJet : Page 1 : <ps-setpagedevice xmlns="apache:fop:extensions:postscript" name="Paper_1"> << /MediaPosition 1 >> </ps-setpagedevice> Page 2 : <ps-setpagedevice xmlns="apache:fop:extensions:postscript" name="Paper_2"> << /MediaPosition 2 >> </ps-setpagedevice> PS file for LaserJet : Page 1 : %FOPBeginSetPageDevice << /PageSize [595 842] /MediaPosition 1 /ImagingBBox null >> setpagedevice %FOPEndSetPageDevice Page 2 : %FOPBeginSetPageDevice << /PageSize [595 842] /MediaPosition 2 /ImagingBBox null >> setpagedevice %FOPEndSetPageDevice Here is an extract of my IF file (Intermediate Format) for Xerox 7835" Page 1 : <ps-setpagedevice xmlns="apache:fop:extensions:postscript" name="Paper_1"> << (tray1) xerox$MediaInputTray >> </ps-setpagedevice> Page 2 : <ps-setpagedevice xmlns="apache:fop:extensions:postscript" name="Paper_2"> << (tray2) xerox$MediaInputTray >> </ps-setpagedevice> PS file for Xerox : Page 1 : %FOPBeginSetPageDevice << /PageSize [595 842] (tray1) xerox$MediaInputTray <===== correct/ImagingBBox null >> setpagedevice %FOPEndSetPageDevice Page 2 : %FOPBeginSetPageDevice << /PageSize [595 842] (tray1) xerox$MediaInputTray <===== incorrect (tray2) xerox$MediaInputTray <===== only this line is correct /ImagingBBox null >> setpagedevice %FOPEndSetPageDevice I have analysed the fop source code. In fact, Fop use a key/Value HashTable and all new key/value are cumulative. Example with LaserJet Page 1 : key=/MediaPosition and value=1 => Fop write in PostScript : “/MediaPosition 1” Page 2 : key=/MediaPosition and value=2 => Fop write in PostScript : “/MediaPosition 2” Exemple with Xerox : Page 1 : key=(tray1) and value=xerox$MediaInputTray => Fop write in PostScript : “(tray1) xerox$MediaInputTray” Page 2 : key=(tray2) and value=xerox$MediaInputTray => Fop write in PostScript all keys/values : “(tray1) xerox$MediaInputTray” + “(tray2) xerox$MediaInputTray” Where is the best way to resolve this problem ? Possibly adding a new key ClearPreviousTrayInfosBeforeSettingNewPage=true/false in fop config PostScript section ? Thank you for your advice. Christian Pestel christian.pes...@orange.fr
