Flags and values

-a {IO1_G4 | IM1 | IO1 | IO1_MMR | PSEG_IO1_G4 | PSEG_IM1 | PSEG_IO1 | PSEG_IO1_MMR | OVLY_IO1_G4 | OVLY_IM1 | OVLY_IO1 | OVLY_IO1_MMR | FS45| FS45.ovly | FS45.pseg}

  • The -a flag determines the type of AFP data stream image to generate for each page in the PCL file.

    Values are:

    IO1_G4
    Compressed Image Object Content Architecture (IOCA) image in Modified TSS (formerly CCITT) T.6 G4 Facsimile Coding Scheme (G4 MMR) format. This is the recommended output type because it takes up less space on the fixed disk, and it prints faster.
      Note:
    • The 3812 and 3816 printers do not support printing with an image type of IO1_G4. For these printers, specify an image type of IO1_MMR because it is the compressed image type supported by these printers. It results in faster printing than uncompressed image types.
