9 Advanced
In the Advanced tab, you can choose special features that extend the
capabilities of the printing system.
Prologue/Epilogue
The Prologue/Epilogue feature enables a user to insert a command file at the
beginning of a print job or at the end. The command file, prepared in a text
editor, utilizes programming commands from the printer resident PRESCRIBE
language. The Product Library CD includes a PRESCRIBE command
language reference guide. A command file is a set of instructions the printing
system interprets to produce a given output. For example, a
Prologue/Epilogue command file may contain a macro that places a graphic
object such as a logo at the top of a letterhead document.
Selecting a Prologue/Epilogue File
A Prologue/Epilogue file must be available on your system before it can be
added to a print job. To create this file, use a text editor like Windows Notepad.
In the Prologue/Epilogue dialog box, select a Prologue/Epilogue file to insert
into the print job. (If no file names are visible in the list, you must click Add to
browse for files on your computer or network to add to the list.) After the file is
selected, insertion point options become available.
Editing a Prologue/Epilogue File
1
In the Prologue/Epilogue dialog box, select a command file name from the list,
and then click Edit. Notepad opens for editing the text file.
