I don't think I would put it exactly that way...
Here's an example:
When copying to a Copystar Falcon III MFP the machine automatically switches trays if there is another tray loaded with the correct size paper, and the image is re-oriented to suit. But if you are printing, the MFP is defaulted not to tray switch, so displays "Load Paper", even if there are three other trays loaded with the same size paper. The web page does not grant access to FRPO setting like some other models. The only way I know of changing auto tray switching for printing is to send the following command:
!R! FRPO R1,99;EXIT;
It doesn't sound like such a big deal, but to the customer it was. And it's the only way to change this setting. And with a little guidance, the IT staff was able to correct this oversight on 25 other Falcon III and Stratos machines, remotely from the IT dept. =^..^=
where can i download "LPR jar utility"

It's a java based utility that serves the same purpose as the other ways to send PreScribe commands, and requires little setup on the users network. The command file can be stored in the same file as the utility, and does not require editing based on model. The commands are not universal across the whole line, but the most commonly used ones stay the same. It is not necessary to have print functions set up, as long as the cable is connected and IP address can be accessed.
LPR Jar can run from a USB stick. Just insert the stick in any PC on the network and the utility will run from the stick.
The other options can be hard to access, or require loading software to the users PC:
1) IC Link: Works well to older Kyocera machines, but does not play well with Wysecore machines, even when the Wysecore option is selected.
2) Printable Data: This screen available on the web interface of some Kyocera products allows the sending of a command, either by typing on the line, or by browsing to a file. This function is not available on all Kyocera products, and the web page can be passworded.
3) KM-Net Viewer: Has a function almost identical to Printable Data. Requires loading a fairly large application to the users PC. Or if it's loaded to you're laptop, requires scanning the network to pick up the available machines on the network.
4) Command Line: Requires composing the command in a Notepad file which is located on the root drive, then composing the command to reference that file.
As far as I can tell there is only a single drawback to LPR Jar. On a few of my larger customers Java commands are blocked across the network, so a direct connection is required (crossover cable to my laptop). =^..^=Leave a comment:
