Here is a start...these examples helped us out quite a bit. We do not
have a saddlestitcher on our digi, but the concept is the same. If you
search the forum for postscript or stitch you will get plenty of examples
and explanations.

Subject: Re: Output to printer with multiple trays
Body:
Jeff,
What type of printer you are trying to print to? This is now getting a bit
too far into postscript programming than I am accustomed to. But I'll give
it a try. From the code you sent, I've found a few pieces of relevant
snippets that I recognize. They are ...
Simplex or Duplex settings (false means simplex and true means duplex)...
featurebegin{
%%BeginFeature: *KMDuplex False
<< /Duplex false >> setpagedevice
%%EndFeature
}featurecleanup
The size of the printed page in points...
featurebegin{
%%BeginFeature: *PageSize Letter
<< /PageSize [612 792] /ImagingBBox null >> setpagedevice
<< /WideMode false /FullBleed false >> /KMOptions /ProcSet findresource
/setKMoptions get exec
%%EndFeature
}featurecleanup
The weight that is set for the media stock...
featurebegin{
%%BeginFeature: *KMMediaWeight NoSetting
<< /KMMediaWeight (NoSet) >> /KMOptions /ProcSet findresource /setKMoptions
get exec
%%EndFeature
}featurecleanup
The color of the media stock...
featurebegin{
%%BeginFeature: *KMMediaColor Blue
<< /KMMediaColor (Blue) >> /KMOptions /ProcSet findresource /setKMoptions
get exec
%%EndFeature
}featurecleanup
I'm not too sure what the "feature" settings mean, but I would guess that
they are simply the headers for this type of printer. I would first try
some
kind of page setting like the following...
featurebegin{
%%BeginFeature: *PageSize Letter
<< /PageSize [612 792] /ImagingBBox null /KMMediaWeight (NoSet)
/KMMediaColor (Blue) >> setpagedevice
<< /WideMode false /FullBleed false >> /KMOptions /ProcSet findresource
/setKMoptions get exec
%%EndFeature
}featurecleanup
--- --- --- --- --- -
Again, this is getting a bit too far into postscript for my comfort, but I
would first try the above code as typed since it is what was basically
found
in the original code stream, I just combined a few statements together. If
that doesn't work then try it with just this...
featurebegin{
%%BeginFeature: *PageSize Letter
<< /PageSize [612 792] /ImagingBBox null /KMMediaWeight (NoSet)
/KMMediaColor (Blue) >> setpagedevice
/KMOptions /ProcSet findresource /setKMoptions get exec
%%EndFeature
}featurecleanup
If this still does not help you along in your way, I can recommend a
different forum at www.tgreer.com/printforum/. This forum is dedicated to
postscript programmers and they should be able to push you along further
with more confidence than I could. Just be sure to tell them what type of
printer you are trying to print to, the Operating System you are in, and
the
application you are trying to get this to work in. I'm sorry, but this is
about as far as I can go. I'll cross my fingers.

David, thanks for all your help. I hate to be a bother, but it seems that
I
cannot get a working Postscript file. I have tried yours exactly and it
has
no effect. Do you have anything else you can recommend. I am attatching a
sample of my printers file below when I did as you suggested. Can I take a
part of this and save it to be used? I don't know what parts are
necessary.
Thanks again.

Mike,
Your staple command will looks something like ONE of these
% upper left portrait:
pop 1 XJXsetstapler
% upper left landscape:
pop 11 XJXsetstapler
% upper right portrait:
pop 2 XJXsetstapler
% upper right landscape:
pop 1 XJXsetstapler
% left portrait:
pop 3 XJXsetstapler
% left portrait:
pop 13 XJXsetstapler
% top portrait:
pop 5 XJXsetstapler
% top landscapet:
pop 3 XJXsetstapler
Also, I am not sure why you have a Postscript header and all those
PPD commands in there. You just need the Postscript commands you wish
to inject. But it this works for you, I guess its ok.
Do not put anything in at Page End because it will not work.
