OpenPrinting Drivers ljet4d

 
ljet4d
 
This driver is free software.
Type: Ghostscript built-in
 

Generic Instructions: CUPS, no spooler, PPD aware applications/clients,

Important for Windows clients: The CUPS PostScript driver for Windows has a bug which makes it choking on PPD files which contain GUI texts longer than 39 characters. Therefore it is recommended to use Adobe's PostScript driver. If you still want to use the CUPS driver, please mark "GUI texts limited to 39 characters" to get an appropriate PPD file.

This driver is available in the Ghostscript Printer Application

This driver is the same as "ljet4" but with duplex printing support. It is probably not really needed because one can control the duplex units of the HP LaserJet 4 series by PJL commands.

A Ghostscript bug in the driver breaks paper input tray selection. This patch for GPL Ghostscript 8.63 fixes the problem and allows to set the input tray with the "-dMediaPosition=X" commmand line option for Ghostscript. "X" is an integer number which depends on the printer model and tray. For HP "0" is usually the printer default, "7" automatic selection, "2" manual feed, "1" the upper, and "4" the lower tray. Note that for PCL 6/XL these numbers are different. The patch is required for Ghostscript 8.63 and older so that tray selection with the PPDs of this site works. The bug is fixed in Ghostscript 8.64 or newer.
