Printing from an Application 351
Page Length
The number of lines to print on a page can be specified with the following option.
As this equipment is a page printer we cannot change the physical length of a piece of paper so
the actual effect of this command is to change the value for lines per inch so that the requested
number of lines is printed on the page. The actual page length may differ from this value if the
top margin or the text length option is used.
If this option is not specified the PJL command will not be sent so the printer’s default value will
be used. The minimum page length allowable is 5. If value is less than 5 page length is set to 5.
The command to specify 66 lines per page is “lp -o pl=66 filename”.
