Re: Default to printer drawer 3 in WSCST requires rocket science

Hi Dan,

As you have mentioned in one of your postings, many of
the MFP devices frequently have web site based manuals
that do not list the drawer selection codes in them.

What I typically do is to create a document in Wordpad
on an MS Windows enabled PC that says "This is a
test." I then print it through the appropriate
Manufacturer's PCL 5e Windows driver to a file. I
perform this process as many times as necessary to
specify printing to each individual drawer on the MFP
device, which I need to setup on the IBM host.

Following this procedure, I obtained the following
information for your Savin 9935DPE.

Savin Tray 1 is activated by printer code 8
Command in HEX is 1B 26 6C 38 48

Savin Tray 2 is activated by printer code 1
Command in HEX is 1B 26 6C 31 48

Savin Tray 3 is activated by printer code 4
Command in HEX is 1B 26 6C 34 48

Savin Tray 4 is activated by printer code 30
Command in HEX is 1B 26 6C 33 30 48

You don't enter any spaces between the HEX bytes when
you place them into a WSCST parameter.

As Dave mentioned in his posting to you, you could
just change the hex information in the drawer 1 tag of
the WSCST to call for the Savin Tray 3 and then all
output destined for IBM host Source Drawer 1 would end
up being printed on paper stored in the Savin MFP's
tray 3.

HTH

Best Regards,
