-
type-name
-
specifies the name of a paper type. Valid
values depend on the type of printer.
For PostScript devices, type-name
must match the name of a paper type in the PPD file, such as TRANSPARENCY
or PLAIN. Refer to the PPD file for a list of valid names. Type-name is case-insensitive and can contain a subset of the
full name. For example, if the name in the PPD file is *MediaType Plain/Paper
you can specify PAPERTYPE='PLAIN/PAPER'.
For PCL devices, type-name
specifies the name of a paper type that is available on the current printer,
such as GLOSSY, PLAIN, SPECIAL, or TRANSPARENCY. Consult your printer's user
manual for the complete list of available paper types on your printer.
For PostScript devices, if a PPD file
is not specified, the PAPERTYPE= option is ignored.
