Find here 3 different ways of how to do it, hopefully one fits your needs:


1. Last page needs to be printed always simplex on a new page (there is a bank form attached)

This and some similar examples are better described here: Perform some actions like paper tray settings on the last [or on a specific] page

The example needs page breaks with form feeds.

[GLOBAL]

; turned on, ELP will store in the variable #PREPARSEPAGECOUNT# the amount of pages

Preparsing=ON

; set first page to duplex and last page to simplex

ELP_Command=C1:1S2;C1:#PREPARSEPAGECOUNT#S0;

If the first pages are not duplex, see here.


2. Third last page and the following pages need to be printed simplex

[GLOBAL]

Preparsing=ON

[Set 3rd last page to simplex]

; Primary trigger always true in order to check secondary

Trigger_Binary=1

; If more then 3 pages then

Trigger_Variable=#PREPARSEPAGECOUNT#>3

; reduce the counter by 2, so will be the third last page then

Counter=#PREPARSEPAGECOUNT#;-2

; and print all in duplex, but the 3 last pages in simplex

ELP_Command=C1:1S2;C1:#PREPARSEPAGECOUNT#S0;

If the first pages are not duplex, see here.


3. On any page X switch back to simplex printing

Well to be absolutely independent, you may need an own page counter while reading the data stream and then set the ELP_Command according the found page number. However usually the data stream needs to have a paper tray selection in the data stream, in order to change from tray A to B.

Is this the case, then here is the easy solution:

[GLOBAL]

; Turn duplexing on page 1 on

ELP_Command=C1:1S1;

; start ELPs paper tray handler

TRAYMAP=Tray Rule

[Tray Rule]

; The last pages are drawn form paper tray with PCL5 selection number 5 (Tray 3)

; So then the tray command is changed to:

TRAY5=\x1B)s-996Z\x1B&n9WdPreprinted\x1B&l0S

; Turn ELP handling off, so the simplex command is not erased which

; would be the case as ELP_Command uses an duplex/simplex command

; change Papertray to Media type command. Set printer Tray 3 to Preprinted

; Set job to simplex

This rule set uses the paper tray switch to the form paper in order to add there the simplex command.
