Customer Tip 

Accessing Extended Features 

Overview 

This document describes how to access the extended features of the WorkCentre 7120 and in environments that do not have a 

custom driver.  

Note: Some of the commands and syntax used in this document requires familiarity with either PostScript (PS) or Printer 

Command Language (PCL). 

This document provides the Printer Description Language (PDL) commands and syntax for each feature. The following items are 

also included: 

  PCL tables that describes the PCL features and the syntax to use the feature. 

  PostScript tables that describes the PostScript features and the syntax to use the feature. 

This document is not intended as a PS or PCL reference manual, but a guide for using the extended features in PS and PCL 

commands. 

Using this Guide 

1.  Search the Feature Table to determine whether the feature you wish to use is supported. 

2.  Verify that the feature is supported by your device. For example, the WorkCentre must have the Finisher option installed to 

use stapling commands. 

3.  Following across the tables to find the syntax listed for the PDL examples shown. Read the Dependencies/Caveats section. 

Getting Started 

PCL and ASCII print jobs can use PJL commands or PCL commands to access the attributes of the device. If there is more than one 

method listed to access a specific feature, determine the best method for your application and use that method. 

Comment Commands 

To process all PJL COMMENT commands and DSC, enclose them with XRXBegin and XRXEnd commands.  

Example PCL print job: 

@PJL COMMENT XRXbegin 

@PJL COMMENT OID_ATT_START_SHEET OID_VAL_JOB_SHEET_NONE; 

@PJL COMMENT XRXend 

Example PS print job: 

%%XRXbegin 

%%OID_ATT_START_SHEET OID_VAL_JOB_SHEET_NONE;
