    • A printing apparatus and method of use therefore are disclosed. The printing apparatus is usable as a replacement printer for replacing an existing printer apparatus without having to change printer drivers or make custom firmware changes in computers on a computer network. The inventive printer apparatus includes a map of source number assignments in the memory of the replacement printer apparatus for the replaced existing printer apparatus and for the replacement printer apparatus. The printing apparatus has a plurality of paper sources with each paper source being assigned a particular pre-assigned assignment code. The print request codes associated with the existing network printer being replaced must be determined. The print request codes are representative of a particular type of paper source. A map of print request codes which are sent by computers on the network for driving the existing printer are compared with the pre-assigned source number assignment of the replacement printer. If the pre-assigned source number assignment is different for any of the paper sources than the print request code, a user can change the source number assignment to agree with the print request code. These changes are placed into a table into the non-volatile memory of the printer, thereby creating a mapping of source number assignments for the new replacement printer, the old printer being replaced, and the custom firmware. The pre-assigned source number assignments can be changed using either NPA commands, the printing apparatus operations panel or using printer job language (PJL).
    • 因此公开了一种使用的打印装置和方法。 打印设备可用作替换打印机,而不必更换打印机驱动程序或在计算机网络上的计算机中进行自定义固件更改。 本发明的打印机装置包括用于更换的现有打印机装置和更换打印机装置的替换打印机装置的存储器中的源编号分配图。 打印装置具有多个纸源,每个纸源被分配特定的预分配代码。 必须确定与要更换的现有网络打印机相关联的打印请求代码。 打印请求代码代表特定类型的纸张来源。 将用于驱动现有打印机的网络上的计算机发送的打印请求代码的图与替换打印机的预分配的源号分配进行比较。 如果预先指定的源号码分配对于任何纸张来源不同于打印请求代码,用户可以更改源编号分配以符合打印请求代码。 这些更改被放置在打印机的非易失性存储器中的表中,从而创建新替换打印机,被替换的旧打印机和定制固件的源编号分配的映射。 可以使用NPA命令,打印设备操作面板或使用打印机作业语言(PJL)来更改预分配的源编号分配。
