Note: When you specify *INPUT for the Page orientation field, by default APU
always attempts to create the output in Portrait mode. APU attempts to
perform rotation according to the values specified for the Page length
and Page width fields.
Many of these values default to *PRTDEF, which points to values that are set
for this print definition. However, these values can also be different, which
means that an individual copy can have different orientation, margins,
selections, and other characteristics.
You need to be aware of the capabilities and limitations of duplex printing:
What Duplex Printing Does
1. Type 1 in the duplex printing field, if you want simple duplex printing. The
resultis that all second pages of the copy are printed on the back side of the
page. If you want tumble duplex, enter 2.
Restrictions
2. Duplex printing can be done only for consecutive pages of the same copy. If
more than one “copy” is required for a page format, duplex printing cannot
be done because one copy never has two consecutive pages.
3. If duplex printing is enabled (=1), then the Back Overlay field must be given a
value of *NONE, because you cannot print both an overlay and print text on
the back side.
Note: Refer to “Duplex” on page 113 for some helpful hints on using duplex
printing.
Specifying the Back Overlay
Note: If you are going to use duplexing, you cannot have a back overlay.
Specify the Terms and Conditions overlay (INVBAC) as the back overlay. That
overlay is shown below:
