FAQ: Print to a specific tray using PCL

Question: I need to print IPDS print jobs to a specific source drawer (paper input tray) on my printer. How do I know on which tray the job will be printed?

Answer: You need to know the following three things.

1. To which tray you want to print
2. What PCL command your printer uses for that tray
3. The source drawer specified in the IPDS file on your host system

ExcelliPrint takes the source drawer specified by the host system and converts it to a PCL escape sequence.

Note: To print to a different tray, you must change the IPDS print job on the host system. Changing ExcelliPrint settings will not change the tray from which the job is printed.
