I need some help! I'm trying to print out envelopes on a laserWriter. It easy to do if I had a Mac, just change the printer setup to manual feed. But I'm trying to print from a VAX, and I can't seem to convince the laserWriter to use the manual feed. Does anyone know the commands to tell the printer to use the manual feed instead of the automatic?? Thanks!!!! -Eric

DISCLAIMER: Based on Redbook entries for the original LaserWriter You might try the following statusdict begin /manualfeed true def end There is also a variable, manualfeedtimeout, that controls the number of seconds the LaserWriter will wait for a page to be inserted. The default is usually 60 seconds. To change it you would use something like statusdict begin /manualfeedtimeout 30 def end Hope this helps, Bob Heiney heiney@dec.com
