Well, it is not enough. I want to send codes like 'print diacritic
code', 'change feeder', 'change page orientation' e.t.c. My printer
(customer's printer) has very extended interface and I have to use it.
Do you have any idea?

I tend to agree with the others that FOP is not the place for printer control. What tray or feeder a document prints from should not be a part of the document.

One option is post processing on the output.  If you output to PostScript
or PCL you can "wrap" the output with PJL commands to select the
printing and finishing options you want.  On most modern printers PJL
gives you almost complete access to all the printers functions and features.

It sounds to me like you want to learn (or you already know) how to manipulate PCL or PostScript. If that's the case, there are tools listed on FOP's Resource page that should help:


http://xml.apache.org/fop/resources.html#products-pdf

iText has been mentioned numerous times as a tool used to do this, so do a search in the list archives for either post-process or iText or both...

Good luck!
