[comp.unix.admin] DEC Printserver20

jdr@sloth.mlb.semi.harris.com (Jim Ray) (03/12/91)

Unfortunately, our local dec support people seem to have absconded
with the manuals on the printserver20.

So, a couple of questions:

1) Can the options for double sided printing be enabled via
   posctscript commands?

2) Does anyone have a list of printer options that are controlled via
   postscript?

Thanks,

I finally was able to set the correct postscript parameter to select
the 11 x 17 tray( it is the second tray - but is labeled 8.5 x 14 ? ).

However, when I print ( EVERY TIME ) the paper jams.  When I open up
the printer back, it looks like there is no jam, just sitting there
waiting to make it over the top roller ( out to the output tray ).
Mechanically everything looks perfect, it just doesn't make it out (
ends up with a jam in region 1 ).  Normal paper ( 8.5 x 11 ) works
just fine.

Does anyone out there use the printer for printing larger format
documents?
