Example: Prints on all pages except the last one, the full letter head, the last page is printed out of the paper tray preprinted

Q: I want to print the full letterhead (form 500) on each page except the last one. Can ELP fulfill this requirement?

A: Here is the ELP command:

ELP_Command=C1F500;C1:#PREPARSEPAGECOUNT#I9;

On all pages we say print form 500 (C1F500), but the last page is defined separately so, the form 500 command is overwritten for this dedicated page. We use the ELP internal variable #PREPARSEPAGECOUNT# for selecting the last page* and set the paper input tray to preprinted (I9).

*) for using the variable #PREPARSEPAGECOUNT# the ini file key PreParsing=ON must be set.
