Bob, We set up each print 'destination' as a separate printer in Windows, but mapping to the same IP address of course. For example "6THFL-P", "6THFL-L" AND "6THFL-A3" might be the same physical printer in A4 Portrait, A4 Landscape and A3 modes (i.e. using Tray 2) respectively. Then, create a 'Separator Page' with PCL commands to set the printer to the desired mode, and associate the 'Separator Page' with the logical printer [via the Printer Properties / Advanced / Separator Page]. I think the 'Separator Page' file must have a ".sep" extension.
HTH Mike E.G. Landscape mode, auto paper tray Separator Page has in it stuff like this \ \H1B\L&l1O \H1B\L&l8D \H1B\L&k4S \H1B\L&l1E \H1B\L&l66P \E -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dillane, Bob Sent: Wednesday, 15 September 2004 05:53 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [U2] LPTR PaperSource problems on Windows Server 2003 We are in the processing of switching from Unix to Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition. On the Windows server we are running Unidata 6.0.12. The following scenario happens both for HP 4600 printers and HP 4200 printers: Using the printer drivers that originally came with Windows Server SETPTR 1,90,60,0,0,1,AT ITS_01,"PaperSource=Tray 2" does not get an error message, but the PaperSource command is ignored. It turns out the trying to print to tray 1 from WordPad on the server also fails, so I downloaded new drivers from HP Using the new drivers: Directing print jobs to tray 1 works from WordPad on the server, however SETPTR 1,90,60,0,0,1,AT ITS_01,"PaperSource=Tray 1" gets the following error message: Unable to find PaperSource Tray 1 on printer ITS_01 Does anyone have any ideas how I can get around this?
