Paper Tray Selection

  • Level 1 PostScript Printers - If a level 1 device has multiple paper trays that are software selectable then a Bentley Advanced Map Finishing PostScript file selects the tray according to the paper name selected at the time of printing.
    If a paper name from the table is used and the printer does not contain that paper size in any tray then the file does not print. If a name other than one in the table is used, the tray currently selected on the printer or the default is used.
    Table 1. Recognized Paper Sizes
    Name Size
    A4 210 x 297 mm
    A3 420 x 297 mm
    B4 264 x 257 mm
    B5 182 x 257 mm
    Letter 8.5 x 11 inches
    Legal 8.5 x 14 inches
    11x17 11 x 17 inches
  • Level 2 PostScript Printers - Tray selection on level 2 devices is determined by the size of the paper used as defined in Bentley Advanced Map Finishing paper setup. The size of the paper has to be within 5 PostScript points (1.764 mm or 0.0694 inches) of the tray selected. If no tray contains paper within 5 points of the paper size selected, the printer does not produce output.
