Table 12: PJL CONFIG Command
Saving and Loading Configuration
To capture the current printer settings to a user setup file, enter the following command:
<ESC>%-12345X@PJL JOB NAME = "JOB_NAME" <LF>
@PJL CONFIG SAVESETUP = “0:filename.stc” <LF>
@PJL EOJ <LF>
To restore the file, enter the following:
<ESC>%-12345X@PJL JOB NAME = "JOB_NAME" <LF>
@PJL CONFIG LOADSETUP = “filename.stc” <LF>
@PJL EOJ <LF>
Note: The extension, .stc must be used in order to see the file listed under the internal
user setup files on front panel equipped printers. Media setup files are performed as
similarly to the example above but using the SAVEMEDIA and LOADMEDIA CONFIG
parameters with file extension .stm instead.
PJL UPGRADE Command
The custom PJL UPGRADE command is used for printer software upgrades. PJL
password security in the JOB command protects against unauthorized use of this
command. Please refer to the HP PCL/PJL Technical Reference Manual for more
information about PJL security. The software package file with name
“SW[modelname]_SW[revision].bin” should be placed on a TFTP server. Afterward, the
following PJL command should be entered:
<ESC>%-12345X@PJL JOB NAME = "JOB_UPGRADE" <LF>
@PJL UPGRADE SERVERIP = “xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx” FILENAME = “SW…bin” <LF>
@PJL EOJ<LF>
<ESC>%-12345X
SERVERIP is the IP address of the TFTP server and FILENAME is the software package
name.
