Introduction to PRESCRIBE

PRESCRIBE is the native language of the Kyocera printing systems including copiers

(collectively referred to as printing systems hereafter). Consisting of easily remembered

commands, such as ‘SLM’ for Set Left Margin, and ‘BOX’ to draw a box, it gives you

the capability to control line and character spacing, adjust margins, change fonts, posi-

tion text, draw graphics, and print multiple copies of each page. PRESCRIBE also gives

freedom to control device settings including selection of paper source, output stack, and

finishing operations such as sorting, stapling, etc.

Most application software controls printing systems by means of codes and escape

sequences that are built into the program and are not directly visible to the user. In con-

trast, PRESCRIBE commands are made of ordinary characters that you can type in your-

self and see on the computer screen. This makes it easy for you to customize printing and

add features that may not be supported by your application.

This chapter presents an introduction to PRESCRIBE starting with an explanation of the

commands by which you start and exit PRESCRIBE. It is followed by an introduction to

some basic concepts of PRESCRIBE, then a discussion of the command format and

command parameters.
