Message page form definition
Specifies the form definition that the printer uses to print any message pages for
jobs. The form definition controls the placement of data on the message page. It also
defines other formatting information, such as the bin number for the printer device.
For example, with cut-sheet printers, the message page can print on paper that is
a different color than the paper color for the job. Authorized users can specify a
different form definition if needed.
Format:
- Length
- Up to 8 alphanumeric characters (bytes)
- Restrictions
- Case-sensitive; can include these special characters: # $ @
- Default
- F1MG0110; used if no value is specified. This is the default value set by the printer driver component; it resides in the /usr/lpp/psf/reslib directory.
- Database name
- AFPPrinter.MessageFormdef
Usage notes:
- The form definition must reside in one of the directories that the AFP resource path printer property specifies or in one of these directories:
- In Linux:
- In the /aiw/aiw1/resources directory
- In the /usr/lpp/psf/reslib directory
- In Windows:
- In the c:\aiw\aiw1\resources directory
- In the \reslib directory in the PSF install path The default install path is c:\Program Files (x86)\InfoPrint\PSF
- In Linux:
- You cannot change the value of this property if there is a job assigned to the printer.
- RICOH ProcessDirector automatically shuts down and restarts the printer when you change the form definition for message pages.
