Subject: Re: [U2] HP 4250dtn printer using PCL commands from Universe
Basic
program with hex conversion codes ... Tray 3 selection not working
Bob,
1. Is this the only PCL command that is not being recognized or are
all
others also not being recognized?
If all PCL commands (eg. CPI, CPL, LPI, LPP, Orientation, etc.) are
being
ignored, check the Windows printer driver installed with this printer.
If you are using the HP driver, none of your PCL commands will be passed
thru to the printer - they will all fail.
If so, you need to create an additional Windows logical printer attached
to
the same port as your current HP4250 and install the Generic Text-only
driver from the Generic manufacturer's list of drivers in Windows and
assign
a different name to the printer (eg. HP4250TEXT).
2. If this is the only PCL command that is being ignored while others
are
being recognized, check the sequence of PCL commands in the string of
PCL
commands that are being sent to the printer.
If you send a PCL command to specify a tray and then follow it with a
PCL
command to specify a particular paper type and that paper type is not in
the
same tray as the tray previously specified, the last command received by
the
printer will be the command that it uses - eg tray 3, paper type Plain
will
leave your printer at tray 2 according to your settings.
Please contact me directly if this doesn't work.
Rgds,
Dave

Subject: [U2] HP 4250dtn printer using PCL commands from Universe Basic
program with hex conversion codes ... Tray 3 selection not working
I am trying to send a report to the HP4250 printer to tray 3 using PCL
codes (hex = 1B266C3548), but is not working.
It always defaults to tray 2 when jobs are sent from host Universe no
matter what PCL tray code I use. Any Microsoft Office print jobs work
fine and select the correct trays.
All 3 trays are setup : Default paper size = Letter Tray behavior =
Use requested tray always
tray1: paper size
= Envelope
paper type
= Preprinted
tray2: paper size
= Letter
paper type
= Plain
tray3: paper size
= Letter
paper type
= Bond
I am on Universe 10.1.23 with Windows Server 2003
I have several cases with HP Support concerning this - but they
haven't
been very helpful - just point me to links to PCL commands (which I
already have).
I am hoping someone in the U2UG has experience doing this ... Any help
would be appreciated.
