outputPCLString

Module: ESI-MIB

OID (symbolic): ESI-MIB::outputPCLString

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.683.6.2.3.2.1.9

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: OCTET STRING

Access: read-write

Description: This string will be sent out the physical port if (1) outputLanguageSwitching is set to PCL or outputLanguageSwitching is set to Auto and the job is determined to be PCL, and (2) outputPrinter is set to No_Specific_Printer.

Even if the group is supported, this variable may not be supported.

What is outputPCLString?

A raw 127-byte string sent out the port ahead of print data when outputLanguageSwitching selects PCL (or auto-detects a PCL job) and outputPrinter is set to no-Specific-Printer. Used to inject printer-initialization escape sequences the built-in printer profiles don't already send.
