Sizes marked with an X are fully supported by the corresponding driver. Sizes marked with a Y are supported by sending the paper dimensions in millimeters to the printer. Sizes that refer to another size substitute the referred size when paper size matching is turned on. If paper size matching is not turned on, the behavior depends upon the specific driver. To turn on paper size matching, use this INI option: < PrtType:XXX > PaperSizeMatching = Yes 1 When paper size matching is not turned on, the PCL 6 (PXL) driver sends the paper dimensions in millimeters to the printer. 2 When paper size matching is not turned on, these drivers substitute US letter. 3 This driver does not use paper size matching. US letter is substituted for the unsupported paper sizes 4 Sizes marked with a C are supported, but are commented out of the AFP formdef source file called F1FMMST.DAT. See list below for more information. |
The AFP formdef source file (F1FMMST.DAT) contains support for all paper sizes marked with either an X or a C in the preceding table. Since this file contains support for so many paper sizes, its size could affect printer performance. To limit the effect, all but the following paper sizes are commented out in the file:
The commented source line begins with an asterisk (*). To add support for another paper size, you open the F1FMMST.DAT file and delete the asterisk at the beginning of each line that references the paper size you want to add.
Because the AFP formdef is composed on medium map names that specify page orientation, paper size, tray selection, and duplex settings, there are 31 groups of medium map settings. Each of these groups contains the 57 possible paper sizes. So, for each paper size you add, there are 31 sources lines you must uncomment to fully support a paper size for all orientations, trays, and duplex settings.
After you uncomment the lines that reference the paper size you want to add, run the AFPFMDEF utility to rebuild your AFP formdef file with the new information. For more information on this utility, see the Utilities Reference.
