Jim, I think you need to use multiple PAGSIZXFM tag in your WSCST. You specify a width and length and the printer control string that tells the printer what to do - so you need to know what the Lexmark needs in order to use the drawers you want,

Check out <http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/iseries/v5r1/ic2924/books/c4156050.pdf>, which is the Workstation Customization Programming manual, esp. chapter 10, I think.

(rephrase question)
i am creating a WCST for a Lexmark Optra T. I can access drawers 1 through 5
but drawers 3,4,5 are legal-sized drawers. Every time I send legal-sized
reports (8lpi, 112 lpp, 10 cpi), get error at printer and it treats it like
letter-sized. Printer control panel config knows they are legal. The
CRTDEVPRT has parms to specify form type (*LETTER, *LEGAL, etc) for drawers
1 & 2. Where can i find specs for specifying form type of drawer? Also
having problems when needing to do at 180-page-rotation on part of the form.
it just seems to ignore the command PAGRTT.

this is v4 r5 and printer is defined as *lan, not ipds.

thanks
