Ok, I got it! — HP Printer PJL

April 8, 2008

Well, if you read my previous post, my times with the PJL havent been too good..

Anyways, here are a few commands you might find handy:

@PJL RDYMSG display = “replace ready message”

@PJL OPMSG display = “put printer offline and show me”

—————————————————–

Those are my favorite two, after just reading for like 3 min, seems easy enough.. Now, you wonder; what do i type in, how do i do this?

Well, its easy.. Open telnet, and telnet to port 9100 on the printer..

You will see nothing, its ok, type the following in:

\e%-12345X\@PJL JOB

@PJL RDYMSG display = "Offline cause Im gay like that"

\@PJL EOJ
\e%-12345X

Anyways, i will be compiling my own program that uses this..
Thanks
