It appears that what I am trying to do is re-write PCL into PJL.
The PCL bits you need are along the lines of:
ESC:'&l1S': ESC:'a1G': to duplex along or around the "long" side of the page
ESC:'&l2S': ESC:'a1G': to duplex along or around the "short" side of the page
ESC:'&l0S': to turn duplexing off....
That's ampersand, lower case letter "L", number one or two or zero,
uppercase letter "S" and lower case letter "A", number one, uppercase
letter "G"...
PJL? Dunno!
HTH...
Per the following code cribbed from Raining Data, I can print a text string
in portrait or landscape via the following.
Tweaking this code to handle duplexing is what is needed.
Esc = char(27)
PJL.Cmd = '@PJL '
UEL.Cmd = Esc : '%-12345X'
PJL.TYPE = 'DEFAULT '
PO.ID = 'YYY'
execute "SETPTR ,80,60,2,0,1,BRIEF,NHEAD,NFMT,NOEJECT,AS PO_":PO.ID:",AT
FRONT"
printer on
print UEL.Cmd : PJL.Cmd
PRINT PJL.Cmd : 'DEFAULT ORIENTATION=PORTRAIT'
PRINT UEL.Cmd
PRINT 'XXX'
END
