From: Clive Dawson <CC.Clive@R20.UTEXAS.EDU> I'd like to challenge some of Phil@Rice's message regarding Imagen 8/300's. Regarding page reversal, I always thought it would be a much better idea for the printer to reverse as many pages as it has room for, rather than ignoring pagereversal completely. In a 100 page job, I'd rather rearrange 2 or 3 sets of properly ordered pages rather than have to manually reverse all 100 pages. Another annoying feature regarding pagereversal/pagecollation is that collation seems to automatically imply reversal. If you know that the host software is going to send the document in last-page-first order, it would be nice if you could collate multiple copies WITHOUT causing page reversal to happen. Turning to the "it-would-be-nice-if" department, we could save A LOT of paper if we could suppress job header pages in an intelligent fashion. I don't want users to be able to be able to play with the JobHeader:OFF parameter at the time they queue the print job, even if they swear they're going to walk right over to the printer immediately. It would be useful, however, if a command could be issued AT the 8/300 console which would apply to the job in progress, telling it not to print the header page because I'm going to walk away and leave it on the tray anyway!
